Get in the garage, mount the Megasquirt, EDIS, JAW, and figure out where an extra fusebox is going to go, maybe start wiring it all up....

And wash the tintops, they're filthy.....

Oh, and over to the outlaws for F-I-L's birthday dinner on Sunday (Hi Ron!)

if you electrolysis the flywheel - search on hear about hydrogen embrittlement. I think you need to bake it afterwards - much easier to just use a wire brush.

Fit new exhaust to Mini

Finish making throttle body to weber manifold adaptors and get it all fitted on the GTS.

Run fuel return pipe from front to back of GTS (fun!) and get it mostly plumbed in.

Make a new fuel rail.

I should think thats all I will get done this weekend

Move two large wardrobes from one room to another across the landing and then move the three wardrobes from the first room to the room where the two came from. Don't ask!! Then I can carry on building my car.

I've got a mates fancy dress 25th bday tomorrow, so I doubt I'll be going anything of use this weekend at all. Although I do want to get out in the toy car at some point again this year.
