Couple days ago I painted some patches of light rust on the bulkhead behind bits of the dash, painted the drivers side footwell over some rust coming up, Painted a bit on the side of the doors, hinges etc etc.
Yesterday i painted two of the wheel hubs, do the other two when I have time, then i will have to replace the wheel nuts as they are rusty. Next I shall paint the bottom of the rear door as that has some patches of rust coming up. Then... time to buy a larger tin of hammerite and tackle the chassis, rear cross member, underside of the floor.... basically everything under my old girl

New lift pump (SNAP!) - replaced as suspected diaphragm was allowing fuel to drain back causing it to have to turn over several times when left before starting
Has made it much more 'perky'

Wired up a cigarette lighter on top of the bulkhead behind the passenger seat off the second battery, ready for Billing so I can use my new electric coolbox without fear of my engine not starting, and also to save the wire's from coming off my dashboard straight into the rear load area, across the gear lever and cubby box

Just arrived home on the back of a transporter (after a 3.5hr wait in the pi$$ing rain):violent:
Looks like the head gasket has gone, overheated, lost all coolant at Chester, re-filled and tried to limp home and she very suddenly overheated 30 mins from home, lot's of steam from rear of engine ... gutted! Trying to decide whether to go and get rat ar$ed or not as this is just the icing on the cake for a very bad week
