Inching forward

Yesterday the seats where offered up but before that I temporarily fitted the pedal box and tightened the rope holding the steering column as I now have the column bracket, so some reference measurements could be taken ready to make the mounting brackets. They looked quite good and enough space around them which was good as it's the first time they been any where near the car.
After that the mini was pushed round to another unit ready for the last coat of clear, well it turned out that it was just to dirty and had to be washed down before degreasing.
Today I was back at the work shop to move it back out and round to my friends unit where it is out of the way. As none of the family cane with me I couldn't help my self and buffed the door, bonnet and boot. With the idea I could take them home where they would be safe.... so I ended up polishing the shell as well :) well it was nice to do as that should be all of that stage done now. Woooo hooo.


Back at home I need to tidy the garage ready for its return, so I got on with grinding the valves in the head just leaving cleaning up the mounting faces and then it can go on the shelf.
