Bob, get hold of some Por 15.
It's too much like hard work that stuff. Jobs done now anyway. Did some other jobs whilst waiting between curerust, paint and waxoil. Even scrubbed my inner wheel rims clean. I guess I'll have to wash it as well now.

Hmm - not at work that night (work nights/evenings/ weekends only now), but, until I actually get paid, the Tiv's going to stay off the road (3 months of sitting on one's ar$e doesn't help the bank balance). If I come, it'll be in a micra.

Thats where the benefit of never having any WaxOil applied in the first place comes. Since I work underneath mine I don't want to get sticky stuff all over the blumin place hence why I'm going to paint mine.

There is less of it as well of course, just a same I don't have a full lift

Fine - simple matter of oval bolt holes (TVR special issue) with large washers to keep everything straight. Add 34 years of road spray/salt/grime - rusty washers give out within an hour of one another as bonnet is opened.

The bonnet just dropped forwards onto the floor. No damage other than the top corner breaking off the number plate. The immaculate paintwork was entirely unscathed.

All in hibernation until I get paid...

Should be there, but l1oopyj is poorly, so probably won't be. (If anything's going to drag her out of her sickbed, it'll be you lot, and the opportunity to pick on Stefan (gently!) for a couple of hours!)
