Well some of you asked for photos... here they are:
Current interior AKA 'the toolbox':
Plan is to go back to original, so the Boleros will stay for the moment, but am on the look out for the original 6-spoke speedlines for refurb (http://robinandpaul.files.wordpress..../speedline.jpg), but as this is likely to be pricey, it will be a while before they are done, certainly a whole set of tyres away
F+R subframes and wishbones all polybushed, as well as rear diff mount.
Rear subframe shotblasted and painted with galvafroid type paint.
New new front diff mounts and gearbox mounts (OEM).
Oil, plugs, filters all done.
Rear calipers freed up so the handbrake works again.
New rear discs and pads.
Pentosin change.
New front track rod ends.
Lambda change for OEM instead of universal.
News chain exhaust hangers.
Coolant flush (Forte followed by a dishwasher tablet(!)) and new G13 coolant.
New header tank
Set of Bosch injectors plus the adapters.
Alternator belt and replacement regulator.
Passenger side regulator replaced.
Heater blower removed, freed up and no longer blows it's fuse
Doors adjusted.
Boot re-sealed (still ongoing a little... but 90% of the way there...)
Central dash switch illumination fixed
'aero' wipers (standard arms)
Replacement bulb holders, now filled with vaseline
Replacement O/S headlamp (all mounts broken bar one)
Towing eye cover replaced (was missing)
Replacement O/S mirror
Re-lubed all window and door lock mech
Few things to do:
Rear view mirror
Headlamp adjustment
Central locking pump is running on (maybe a minute after locking/unlocking)
re-reseal N/S tail lamp
MOT
Radio reception diagnosis
Unable to switch off air to face vents with knob
Swap out wiper and hazard stalk for new
Wire in MIL lamp
Fit drivers side door trim (new from Audi 42+VAT)
Proper alignment (anyone know anywhere in Somerset for that?)
Headlining (mouldy), will recover at some point.
Clean the inside up a bit!
Get the headlamp seals in place properly
Longer term stuff:
Refurb head/swap out for known good/refurbed head as guides leak a bit into the 'zorst.
Respray, paint is NOT good, roof all crazed, lacquer lifting in a few places, and bonnet fading. Possibly get this done in the summer.
Phew.... sounds a lot now I write it up!
