looking good Dan, that front bumper makes a big differance

[v6 steve]

i had one of them in the kitchen as well but fitted it to the rear end of the se2 today so nothing to stroke tonight

[Mark1]

That's coming along nice, wish I could put mine away for the winter but she has to stay outside all covered up.

Once the paint job is finished in the spring, I can focus all of my attention on getting a V6 in there.

what size 2.5, 3.0 or 3.2

[v6 steve]

I'm going for 2.5. I've already started collecting various parts ('g' cams, 3.0 lower divider & enlarged TB so far) & with a complete donor car it's the quickest, easiest & laziest way!

I've had enough for the year. No point in having the car out over the winter months getting sh**ted up on salty roads, I have a "bag of spanners" Vectra GLS for that!

I'll get it MOT'd at the end of March, taxed for 6 months at the beginning of April to see me to the paint shop & through the summer then it's back in the garage from October again.

I don't do the cold. I do sh*t like paint the house instead.

[DanSE4]

Get me a donor & you have yourself a deal. I fit some mean coving!

[DanSE4]

Well, it's that time of year again & she came back out of my garage yesterday.

Gave her a basic service & started on a few odd's & sod's to start putting things back together again (including fudging the rear exhaust mount to stop it rattling against the kit ).

More to do today, including fitting set of headrests in the rear and some general MOT preperation checks as we'll be in for testing in a couple of weeks. Once that's done it's Tax in April & off to the paint shop for more "blue treatment".

Oh, & a V6 to get in at some point when I actually have one!

[DanSE4]

MOT passed today.

[RobbieV]

Nice one Dan

[DanSE4]

I knew she wouldn't let me down.

Tax at the beginning of April & I'm back in business!

Next trip, paint shop.

[v6 steve]

nice one
