One week to go!!!

by Fraz » Sat Jun 25, 2011 9:29 pm

Yup its just one week till Billing, So what have we all got to do in 7 days (or less)

Today at long last the rain stayed off long enough to give the ol Girl a few coats of protection and a shine ...just got the black trim to do tomorrow (dont you just hate the polish getting on the trim) then the engine bay/Boot and door shuts followed by a quick going over of the interior and then the glass

Got to fix the exhaust as that has developed a blow someplace (hope nothing to serious) and get some things looked out, and put in a handy place ready to pack think thats it

so whats everyone else doing ??

Mine needs a wash as still covered in crap and untouched since PVS, then the usual, polish, wax, inside, trims. glass.
Engine bay is reasonable but will get a detailed once over.
Rear drums will get a lick of paint if req'd, calipers cleaned etc.

Ive booked next wed and thur off work to do all this ready to drive up friday morning.
