A Busy But Quiet Fortnight

Well, haven't got a post in over the past few weeks as there was nothing really worth reporting in small sections so I figured I'd just drop it all down in one heap tonight.

Over the past few weeks, not much in the way of engine or technical stuff has gone wrong ((touch wood)) and so has given me some time to do a few other little bits.

After spying a fair sized spot of rust on the offside valance I investigated further.. After careful tapping with the handle of a screwdriver, the entirety of the problem soon became clear, a hole the size of a fist was the problem.
After a quick trip to the local car shop to get some metal mesh, I set to filling the whole with some P40 and finishing with some P38. Problem solved..

After all this was sorted I set out with my very small hand spray airbrush to cover up the previous weeks repairs. I quick swift spray on each spot left the car looking a lot neater.

Aswell as these, I noticied a side indicator repeater bulb was blown, so I changed that also. Put a new LED bulb into the interior light and we also fitted a little "Light On" sounder, that squeals if you open the drivers side door with the light still on, to save from forgetting about them and leaving them on.

All in all, a fairly productive period but nothing overly special done.
