Almost crashed her! Having to do a massive hill start in reverse due to the steepest car park ever.

Stripped 2 of the threads on the radius arm subframe mounts. Lost my rag. Cursed it at least a dozen times.
Opened a beer. Swore some more.

Rebuilt rear lights with new seals. Got told off for washing all the plastic bits in the kitchen.

Fitted new wiper blades.

Built a mini loom and bracket to hold the compressor and three horns for my new air horns.

T-cut one wing, doing whole car tomorrow. Then it'll get two coats of polish.

Started removing interior, I'm making a new dash.

Tie bars are my next to do item. Mine are a lil bowed.
Got all 4 wheels restored and found chrome center caps, wired up my Driving Lights and picked up an Oscilating fan that plugs into my aux. jack.
It was 107F today and no breeze. Swetted off 5 lbs.

Steam cleaned my new pair of front buckets (not yet installed) as well as the original rear seat. Discovered its grey, not brown!
