A good looking brace of arosas, was good to see them close up :)

As said, nice couple of Arosas. Nice to meet again. Keep up the good work.

Thanks guys! Good to catch up, been along time since Edition38 2 years ago! :)

Had my MOT this week, subframe was cracked and my cat was loose inside the pipe :s

Got it done at work (ford) told the tester exactly what was wrong etc but he was happy to pass it :)

Night before..last minute jobs!

Well, all passed, thanks to JoeA for lending me some rear springs as my custom ones don't fit adjusters!

Advisory..

Today was a show only 5 miles from home so it was silly not to go, free entry too!

On Saturday I removed my Exhaust Manifold heat shield for a clean up :)

How it looked..

I used a worn wire brush drill bit that wasn't too course to break the surface, then 400 grit, 800 grit and finished with 1200, didn't want a mirror polish finish as I don't have anything on the car that's metal polished, just a factory look..

Anyone notice anything different around the back? (Made something standard look a bit cleaner to look at)

That's all I took, too busy cleaning, and put in for Show and Shine as they had a 'best independent' trophy but the seats weren't classed under any sections :(
