Winter jobs

[Grumps]

Sills coming off as I've got a small amount of corrosion on the front edges and want to make sure it isn't spreading to other areas.
Rear beam bushes and drop links, handbrake cables and and and..........

Tired of polishing, my next idea..

 

[Althulas]

Lots and lots to do but a bit difficult working away and arranging seats to be able to move my car but I might be home for a while at the end of November much to the wife’s pleasure and maybe not mine

So first job is a check the brakes are not seized but they need an overhaul and paint job but MOT first priority.

I need a new roof to weather proof after mot cash ready and waiting to book in.

Next overhaul cooling system as thermostat stuck open so have all bits apart from tentioners as they appear fine to use the car long term.

So once weather proofed and mot’d it’s time to drop rear subframe change the bushes and suspension, change suspension front and bushes all part ready stuff and make it all clean rust treated and protected. I just need to buy two new sills to complete the underneath.

I Have dent and rust free sprayed up bonnet, front and rear wings to fit after any working round the car is fitted to save on scratches.

I then have the wing mirror bases to address. I have other stuff to add to the list but can’t see it all being done over winter. I have the parts but not the time hence in going project.

My list is:
+ New front tyres on the 18" wheels -- done [Avon ZV7's -- tramlining disapeared magically]
+ Upgrade front brakes to 300mm, replace *all* discs, pads, lines. That is still ongoing.
+ Go to Dent Doctor and get a few bumps sorted out.
+ Get both set of wheels refurbed, the #18's and the MV1's

Next big job will be painting. But there's also some jobs to do inside the car, like replacing top dash.
