I looked at the small hole in the spare wheel well where the drain plug thingy is, only became apparent when I wire brushed some loose underseal off the other day, and decided I'm going to have to chop it out and weld a proper patch in - thought I had finished welding this car!

The engine hood holder as you see there, is the same coating as the inlet manifold.

Full speed ahead!
Replaced most fuel hoses last year (op top of the right tank half and to the pump) but after that work I noticed a drop of fuel on the left half after fueling as well. Time to remove...
Rear subframe has some superficial rust but not enough to annoy me atm




Oh yeah that one's been leaking! Further, no rust or traces of leaks on the seams


If you payed attention
you already noticed the missing rear sway bar. Time to fit the Alpina unit that Arnold has freshed up for me

And now the car's jacked up anyway...

I cleaned up the powder coated parts I have for the engine bay on the TWR.
Did my usual weekly oil & fluids check on MIB before giving it a wash.
