I've actually done something, yay.

OK, its been basically forever since I did anything on the car. Partly due to weather, partly due to me having zero motivation or drive.

But, I’m back on it now for at least the next few weeks. I started to strip down the suspension components after soaking them in WD40 for about a month. This did virtually nothing, and I spent most of Sunday swearing at the car and wanting to set it on fire.

Firstly I found some rust on my would-be rust free shell. I poked about with a hammer and made a nice hole that I’ll have to get some rust converter stuff on and test out my fibre glassing skills. Not the best start…



I did manage to wrestle the rear wishbone assembly off after some time though. One of the bolts is seized (I’ll take it to a shop to get it pressed out), I cant get the hub nut off and I broke one of the alignment bolts; but its off.


This is progress.
