Bloody hell, how bigs yer tank???

I dunno mate - have twin underslungs in place of the standard 95 litre petrol tank - but they was fitted when new 11 years ago and such info has unfortunately long since vanished!

I gave mine a quick wash so I can see out the windows and then fitted new bulbs to my dash. I can now see the fuel gauge, hot/cold, blower up and down and fan position in the dark. Nearly had a heart attack when I popped into halfords and they were £2 a bulb. My heart slowed down a bit when they cam down to 45p each with the use of my trade card. Still bloody pricey though.

thanks mate see what you mean about a bit scabby

)

Prep work for the re-spray...Took as many lights, grills, guards off as possible, sanded her down...filled a few holes and splits in the bodywork. then I sanded her down and used about 50 bin liners and a ton of paper to cover everything thats not going to be painted..

1 indicator light cracked, 1 bulb rusted solid to its housing..1 rear eyebrow loose...all fixed, pleased there was no real issues..

Only took 8 hours...and this beer tastes like nectar...early start tomorrow.
