Well as you guys probably all know this thing blew a water line (heater) on the back of the engine after two weeks of being here.

just thought id update you a bit.

Engine and box are out - thought it would be a good time to hit the leaking sump, front and rear main seals and to change all the water hoses etc so i don't run into the same problem. Also the box was on the way out so throwing the spare in which is hopefully better. Also replacing exhaust gaskets as they let go on the big trip down too.







Dan also came round and rid the engine of all "not necessary" water hoses, pipes and vacuum lines.

Front struts have been out, again, and I've spruced them up with a lick of paint etc.



Also decided to fix the rust in the firewall which came about due to the "panelshop" replacing the rust with "liquid steel" instead of REAL steel. And filling up the holes in the floor from cutting the gearstick hole to big.
