    Fixed the odometer today.





    All because of this little bastard.




    Little problem causing bastard fixed.
    I drilled out the center of the cog the tiniest little bit and glued it back on.










    Needless to say, I cleaned absolutely everything I could as I went along.


    And it works!
    I might even be motivated this week. I'll organize a windscreen finally!

    Oh ****, i'm unemployed.
    I'm going to need something to do for the next few days so i don't go insane being at home all the time!

    Going to:
    - Hack up the plastic-bumper number plate bracket to fit a slimline plate and mount off-center on a chrome bumper.
    - Sand off some rust and put a bit of primer over it (front valance, drivers side c-pillar etc.)
    - Have a go at making it run a bit better
    - Clean wheel arches
    ...

    I need suggestions!

    It's so far below being able to be admired. I could vacuum it, but that's not really progressing.

    Come on... Then sit in it and admire, take in that funky MK1 smell.
    I opened a box that had interior parts this afternoon and the memories all came flooding back.
    I'm going to the pub... I may be some time...
