Quick work list update

In between my hobby of fixing cars, turns out I have to work for a living! Im back to work and all car related stuff will take a back seat for the next 4/5 weeks.

During the time away from cars, I have made a work list for the next batch of jobs.

Apart from my own cars, I have been doing work for family and friends, including timing belts and rust repair to my mums Lexus, plus a few cosmetic jobs to her V8 Soarer (which is a complete animal of a car!! 4.3 ltr V8)

Im also planning on helping my best man, from my wedding, James restore his mk3 MX5. So for the sake of engineering interest, Ill be adding work from these jobs to the blog as well.

Here is the wrap list so far...

check for exhaust leaks on manifold
New front reg plate needed
clean interior and sort out NOS bottle heater wires to boot and secure all eco wires in footwell.

Drill and tap holes for Air Intake Temp sensor on intercooler pipes
