    So got the heating out, changed the wind screen wash tank. Made a little bracket up for it out of some ally sheet. Other tank had duff pump so another was put in line so was horrible. Pretty chuffed with it. :)

    It's my daily driver so nothing extreme. I need to keep it usable on the roads. Theres a few reasons for shifting the battery to where the heating is. My battery storage under passenger seat is rotting with rust. I plan to do away with the whole under seat section and put a combo of ally and...

    Thanks John that's a good shout on the seal. The other day I bypassed the heater matrix system by swapping some pipes about. I wanted to see if it had any sort of detriment to cooling before I ripped it all out. I've torn it round a farm solid for about 45 mins with no issue but also used it...

    The foot wells are all good. They have been re-plated at some point. Admittedly I was done when I bought the car. The previous owner pasted body filler all over the bulk head and then painted it. So it looks all good up top. the foot wells having been changed I thought “ah cool it’s all been...

    The seats i have swapped out for a set from a Toyota Yaris. They are much comfier and as luck would have it were an almost direct fit. I just cut some locating pins off and had a mate weld some bars to the bottom to allow me to bolt them down. I used all existing holes. They sit about an inch...

    the doors are a mess and need replacing to be honest. I've patched up the rear to a safe level. The pics dont show it but i have since fitted sound deadening to the rear door and plan to expandy foam fill it and put a flat sheet of acrilic over it on the inside. The outside will get either ally...
