February 2013

The car is coming out a month early! So only 3 days now and she is out!

So the next job will be to fit this lot!



A complete set of new wheel arch liners and covers! Mine are all very stained and not looking good, it has bugged me for nearly three years!

The next thing ordered was this :-




A fully tailored 'prestige model' cover the the car from http://specialisedcovers-px.rtrk.co.uk/

Yes I know, the picture shows an Aston!! but mine will have red sides, a black top with silver piping and a silver embroided Vauxhall logo on the bonnet.

Should take 3-4 weeks to have made.

So looking forward to getting back out in it!!

I'll put some pics up as I do the arch liner changes. But got to wait 3-4 weeks for the cover!!

[MikeS]

they rubbing on the lip ?

 

[Maverick]

Mine were just dis-coloured, and one has a rub mark from when I forgot to fit a couple of clips and it hung away from the car and rubbed thewheel.

The complete set came to about £66.

 

[Matt]

That's not bad for a full set

 

[Maverick]

I was suprised Mat, as I was sure I was told the fronts were about £50 each!

March 2013

Today's job consisted of giving the underside a clean and fitting the new wheel arch liners.

So up she went!





All 4 wheels off



Fitted these :-



Then gave the underside a good clean







I then decided to revert back to the 18's. I like the OPC/Early Zafira GSi wheels, but just prefer the 18's. So they are now back on!



Now she is back on the road, she is going in to Classic Car Services hopefully in April/May to have the Dash and roof lid done, and maybe the roll bar as well.
