    You couldn't pass me a link for psi? Google brings up a lot of crap.

    Bit late for the magic water bottle trick, shame.

    Not wishing to detract from all the mechanical work that's gone into this project, but I love the styling and attention to detail... clean and understated FTW :thumbup:

    Thanks all....

    Ian, as gaz said BMW fella.

    Am taking some time out this year to decide what to do with the car,
    as it's now showing it's age in areas, and I know where they are [:s]

    So I need to decide if I want to spend some more money on the car, or
    to sell it, or even break it for parts[:^(] I need to look at the coinage
    and see if I think it's worth spending the money on it.....

    I'll still be at the shows, but as bystander this year [:D] in one of the dailies

    mine
    [​IMG]

    or hers

    so watch this space for either loads of updates
    or a post to a link for the sales adverts....

    [:s]

    Right quick updated, had a year out from the polishing and just kicked back and enjoyed the few shows I went, am know cracking on with the repairs and tarting up of the show queen ready for next year hahahaha

    First repair....

    Was some small rust around the fuel cap so had a look at the damage
    [​IMG]

    was quite worried about the rust so out came the small cutting disk
    [​IMG]

    and my worry became a nightmare
    [​IMG]

    with the help of my trusted friend we welded up the hole
    [​IMG]

    the new petrol flap is in and ready for paint now
    [​IMG]

    Note the difference, that's all I'm saying

    Next repair will be started in 2 weeks and will get pictures
