As you guessed...i struggled for a project name!!
anyway, this will be a thread of everything i do with my car, from body work, structural to performance
First thing...
I went to the car on sunday and there were some fluids underneath...
Number 1 fluid...power steering - wettest part is the top hose in the engine bay, my number 1 suspect!
Number 2 fluid...COOLANT!! Looks clean though. its coming down from the right of the block from about half way up (when looking from the front) but its hard to tell...so i think it may be the block/coolant system interface (had this on my 80!) unless you can advise other wise. Coolant in the resevoir looks clean too and oil is clean.
Once these are done ill start fettling...
Next thing im going to do is drop the rear subframe out along with the running gear and suspension, service, clean and paint. Hopefully around xmas time. Then on to the front but probably without dropping the subframe, it still looks tidy!
Then engine bay, a good clean, some silicon hoses and a good check over. no power mods quite yet...
Then i intend on getting the bonnet, front wings (probably new ones) front bumper and rear bumper re-sprayed. Currently toying with the idea of RS2 bumpers.
Ill get some pics of what im going to work on soon so you can see before and after (and to please myself!)
Update soon...
