Nowt.

****in' down all day so went in the shed and did 'stuff' .. changed bike brake cables and wheelset, setup a cheap ipod dock and got the ipod working outside, wired mains in properly, added a decent twin tube spotlight running horizontally above the bench where it had been just stood on for a while!

Threw out some old jars of 'stuff' that had lost labels and I couldn't remember what they were, generally tidied around a bit and can now get to the rear of the shed, almost without moving stuff .. ;)

Sat down, chilled and just watched the rain on the garden for an hour or so ... so relaxing.
 
used it to pull pikey up a hill ,:D also to have a great day out with others on a recce trip for the chip run , all i can say is those who are doing the trip are in for a good day out in dorset:)
 
Ordered a new rad for it. Hmmm all that carting it round for the conversion didn't help. To be fair it was on its last legs.

Fixed its fuel drip from the filter.

Took it through what is left of Eastnors campsite. :eek::eek:
 
I moved mine about 10ft and then removed a multi-pack of crisps from the back seating area.:eek:;):D
 
all over the place today in her! wheels ran into a curb today after i was distracted watching a pick-up towing a car try to over take a car on a windy up hill road! It was madness!
Also, locking my keys in it which was good... luckily I was at home so used the spare to get in the house.. then the spare landy key to get my keys out! one of them days me things :D

lovely day cruising around with the warm air rushing through the cab :)

Can't wait for tyres. Back Laning again. :biggrin1::biggrin1::biggrin1: Oh yea need to do checkplate on this side next week
 
Finished assembling the interior of one of the doors on my 110. I've fitted fairly new black door cards & alloy door furniture. The drilled alloy pull handles & window winders were easy to find on e-bay & look really good. The difficult bit is spraying the plastic door plate & lever, the lock stem & insert in silver. Sure you can buy silver paint anywhere but as soon as you laquer it to give it some durability, it goes gray!
I wanted a real metallic silver, like a newly minted coin and again this bright silver paint is easily available in acrylic (water based), which means it will rub-off in no time at all, leaving an unsightly mess. And again if you laqer it, it turns grey.
So, it has to be a durable, bright silver finish. I found the answer & proved the technique. It looks really good & if anyone else is interested, please give me an e-mail & I'll talk you through the process.
 
took it laning yesterday and got it stuck twice. 2nd time I nearly had it on it's side. :eek:
