Today i noticed the little rubber cap thats at the rear of the door near the window was missing on mine, so I drove 25 miles to a scrap yard, climbed up on top of two cars and managed to get one off a tf perched up there, drove 25 miles home and then discovered that it wasn't missing, it had rotated on the little clip and was still there.

don't despair, you are in the same boat as the rest of us,lol:bang:

Thread revival time again.

Not done much... Other than collect Sue from The Aged Mother in Law. Sue can't drive at the mo due to back problems so the Longbridge Legacy has mostly sat on the drive. I dropped her off in the furndy wurndy Volvuurrr then did some shopping for w'tea, then went home to throw some stuff in the slow cooker. Time to collect Sue and kiss the Ma in Law on the cheek. Old married men will know the heroism required for this.
Without detracting from the heroism of our forefathers.... give me a Normandy beach as an alternative. I'll storm that.

Folded the hood back and enjoyed a six mile hoon through leafy Leics lanes. Glad we had a no hardtop winter. 3 degrees outside, heater on max. Then six miles back. With a soundtrack comprising ' aww, stop thrashing my little car...'
Makes up for the frustration, expense, lost skin and HGF. Mostly....

May even give it a wash tomorrow.

Even a TT MK 7 can't drown it out.....

It didn't need reviving, at this time of year it is just slower than at warmer times.

Yesterday I did more prep and paint of the rear TF subframe.

I also painted the TF front subframe brace tubes and the TF under dash brace.
I now need to work out a clever way of fitting the under dash brace to my F without welding the brackets onto the cross car tube.

Today I finished the prep and paint, just need to touch it up later when it's fully dry.

Today i painted a spare center console to match my leather. Not sure if i like it though.

it looks good to me

Agree with Graham.

Get it all back together, with seats etc and then have another review.

A pair of chrome clock surrounds would top it off nicely

Ive actually just won some on ebay an hour ago haha, so will see what it looks like when they get here

If it's more'n a week old it's a revival in Johnny-land( a rare and wonderful place)
