Tyres and lift are on the 'to-do' list. Few more pressing things that need doing. Half the 'bungs' in the bulkhead are missing so its gonna leak like a pig in heavy rain let along throwing mud up. Need to give her a full service and a bloody good wash. I dont mind a film of muck all over it provided I put it there. And Moss isnt mud :)

Now White and brown

Well Mostly Brown. Other half dirtied it up a bit round the back roads. Shame I need to wash it, strip the girly stickers off and clean it tomorrow. Will have to find some more mud after.

I T-Cut one wing just out of curiousity (well as best you can when you cant bend over to get at it) and its not a totally different shade of white to the rest :S

Stickers are comming off tomorrow. Just done the service she had missed and discovered a few things that wernt helping her

Plug in no1 had no electrode, had eroded away (will have to watch that) Plug in no3 was just screwed, seal had failed and cylinder was loosing compression.

Air filter was totally choked, Fanbelt loose enought o remove without slackening anythin (new belt fitted) Seval hoses perised all done now and I must say I am impressed at how quick these things are :)

Mr Fusion Sticker installed and Hopefully Duck and MC stickers to be done next week. Oh and 4 hours of t-cutting to get it from cream back to white.
