Bob Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 I've had to be in work both days this weekend for a (minimum) 8 hour shift. However, I'm only there to keep an eye on the 2 blokes doing the mechanical installations for the sludge pumps (sewage treatment works ) which gives me a bit of time to play about. Today, I: Stripped out my coil packs, cleaned up all the rubbers and frames and replaced with a slightly newer set (cheers CJ - from months ago!) Stripped down my front brakes, wire brushed the discs and hubs and cleaned everything off properly (now realised I desperately need new pads from CW!) Replaced my knackered old (brown?!) fuel pump with a shiny new Walbro Stripped down my door cards and scraped/sanded the plastic bits ready for colour-coding tomorrow Gave the engine bay a clean down, bedbath stylee (I just hope no-one at work wants that sponge back - it's pure black now) and fitting my top radiator pipe (cheers Martin!) So all in all a fairly good day. And to top it all, I'm being paid for the privilege Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest probedb Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 Sounds like a good day at work One of my friends did stuff like this whilst he was working security. I swapped cars with a friend and he stripped and swapped everything from the interior to engine parts whilst at work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted July 30, 2006 Author Share Posted July 30, 2006 hope your boss dont read this then[OOPS][/OOPS] The boss used to be car crazy himself - he knows I wanted to work on it at the weekend, and he told me he was happy for me to work on the car as long as I kept on eye on the lads, got the inspections done, etc. Finished off today by getting the following done: Back-to-Blacked all door bits, engine plastics, windscreen-plastic-panelly-thing and rubber seals Finished primering the door plastics rady for colour-coding Replaced rear speakers Stripped out everything from the boot to the front doors, including removing the rear seatbelts (install due soon!) and the roof lining Dynamatted the roof, boot, side panels and rear seats and most importantly, fitted my shiny holo-effect club logos (pics below, but don't really do them justice in the sunshine!) and my office, lunchtime!: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
