What are you doing on the Wedge at the Weekend ?

[rev-erend]

Mine will be receiving a bit of TLC :

Polish, Wax and Solvo / Alubright for the wheels.. and clean the leather interior :D

I might even take it out for a early morning Sunday drive - that should wake the whole neighbourhood :hehe:

[gsx600]

Hopefully putting on 2 shiney wheels, as having the edges polished as we speak.

Also getting back 4 extra polished rocker covers, and 2 polished plenum chambers ( 1 hot wire, 1 flapper type) So if any one is interested will be bringing them along next week.

Also must complete the BBWSV in time !!

Might even polish / clean the car as it's filthy after recarpeting it last weekend.

Just got back from having 2 Toyo Proxes TS's on the rears.

They had a bit of a job stretching them over the rims (9" ?).

Then he told me to take it easy for a week, so the wheels don't just spin on the soap in the tyres.

I'm going to have a go at increasing the brake pedal ratio and the obvious spit and polish in prep for next w'end, as well as the usual tinkering

Current state of play:



some late nights this week

[stever]

Looks serious, has the rest been stolen

[rev-erend]

I'm guessing it's a cat flap for a wedge

[dickymint]

Fitting sidewinder missiles to get through border control and just in case that chimp is there again

[Graham]

taking the buggered engine out and putting another one back in

[jss777]

Off to sunny hunny to show the TVRCC what a proper TVR is!

Mine will be on display as a demonstration of "the various problems that occur with fibreglass bodywork"

And "How water ingress affects the interior of a TVR"

Maybe see someone there to keep up the Wedge contingent.

and before anyone has a go at my skills with a jigsaw it's a faithful copy of the original

[york33]

I'm not even gonna start writing down a comprehensive list, I do new lists every day for the tasks to be done before (too much) beer. All the interior other than the dash is in the cellar, except for carpets, I haven't made them yet. Oh, and the seats are in bits. My new cooling fans keep blowing fuses. Brakes need bleeding again, the master cylinder is leaking.

MOT next Friday!

[MIKEB]

Pick the car up from its new hood and carpet transplant! Then give it a good battery charge, clean, polish and then thrash.

Then black silicone all the bulkhead loom holes so as not to get my new carpets wet!

Then Rain-x the screen just in case....

[FrenchTVR]

Cleaning the brake dust off of the wheels and removing all the rubber granules from the front tyres where I've been hooning around Spa

Paul, does that mean that you've found someone who can repair them?

I managed to find someone who did a reasonable job in getting the buckle out. Then a friendly polisher polished the rims for me without splitting them, so all outside the bolts are now polished.
If I had a the right tool and new bolts / gasket I would have stripped them totally for a complete polish of the outer rim.
