Photos dont show all the bumps and scrapes, and the few wee rust bubbles, but is solid enough, and clean and dry car.

Got a few wee things to do before WOF next week (?), but I have certainly broken the back of it. can't wait to dump it down on those wheels, think it will look quite cool 8-)

Want to get all finished a few weeks before hand so I can get some km on it to sort out any wee issues, before I mission it up to Akaroa.
Very cool dude. Be great to catch up with you and the Y @ Akaroa next month!

yeah Braasy be great to catch up with e1.
also be good to actually attend Akaroa!

Wife gone to a show tonight, and kids in bed...
so I have stripped down and repaired the rusted up water washer pump - and she is all good now
going to repair the demister hoses, and leaky radiator hose, only thing really left to sort is handbrake
don't work no good, I have dialled up the adjustment, but still no good, better pull off drums and inspect
the shoe and spring condition.

Just about to head up to the lakes (long weekend in Timaru)
but have just finished oil change, setting points, new plugs, fitting rear seatbelts, and interior grooming, new floor mats etc....

Took it up the road for another wee test drive, whoops....., kind of got caught up in the moment, and ended up about 5 or 6 blocks away before I remembered I had no WOF & REG! :?

Think its all but ready for a WOF next week, just need to get hand brake working first.

Looks pretty cool out in the daylight with the big polish up / stripes & mags.... got a few looks for sure, but man I need to slam it at least 2-2.5" front & rear!!!!

Kind of thinking about putting a side drafted A15 in it too... man stock A12's are slow!!!!! won't be before Akaroa though so she will be a 60mph drudge there and back....
