Default small update time 12/10/05

ive bin in the garage (not as much as id like but i do work nights!)
and ive took me screen out (which smashed ) and ive found a bit more rot

i am doing biots to prepare for the welding (removing items etc)
so i took the bulkhead pad out to check to see how far it goes and found this little mess

which really made my day!!!!
other than that ive just bin cleaning and painting little bits like the front struts and bagging and tagging the wiring and bolts etc. oh yeah and i thought id show you all me engine just cos i never have so here goes

thats it for now so i'l try and update for tommorow.
