So has anybody elts been out working on there cars today ?

Ive been out there a good eight hours on and of. I now can not feel my toes.

Ive just finished making the wiring loom from scratch. Best bit it, all seems to work just fine I am well pleased.

Only thing ive found is ive missed the sensor wire for the engine temp gauge. Never mind easy to add.

I've been making stuff all day ................. in my insulated , heated garage
But I did take the Fury for a spin this morning - the snow did make it a bit interesting

Just spent 30 mins trying to get my steering wheel boss off, anyone any ideas to make it easy, i thought of hitting it with a big hammer but daughter is fast asleep above my garage.

Continued the gargantuan task of clearing out Dad's garage.... filled an estate car with stuff... mostly stuff that was a real wrench to part with.

Jesus it was cold down at the tip. Goodness knows how the blokes who work there manage to stand there all day!

Cheers,
James

Went out and palnned to drill holes and fix the fuel metering head on, drilled the holes and started winding in a screwing in a bolt when it snapped, then spent the next hour and half trying to drill it out... 4 snapped drilles later... i gave up and went in as the cold was starting to get to me fingers

I've been out in my garage. Flipping freezing it was too. Even put the radiator on that hasn't been used for about two years. Didn't even make any difference. Switched it off in the end and didn't feel any colder!!!! Blimey... Good thing I had my ringers gloves, at one point I tried working without them but it was too painful- the chassis is just a giant heat sink!!
