Today, just spent the morning cleaning the front seats and applying the first layer of Mink Oil. Now taking a break over lunch and will start on the rear seats, there after I will clean out the boot (trunk to those across the herring pond) then if there is still time I will service the carb. Then it will be just enough time to join me mates for a drink. :cheers

I changed the rear differential (it had a strange noise...) and mounted the Alpina-spoiler

8 & 9 x 15's with 10mm hubcentrics up front. Was going to have arches to enable me to lose the tyre stretch but am having the standard arches stretched & dressed instead. Probably after the engine swap though.
