I won't be starting until Tues when i have a day off to do a few bits then cleaning and polishing in the evenings.
Quick once over sat at work before i journey up there.
Quick clean at our PP spot and thats it, i'd have polished all the bloody paintwork off by then!
I reckon i may get a valet in to do the engine bay and upholstery though. No steam cleaner at home
For all Ford Servicing, repairs and conversions. Call or pm me for details. Based in Brentwood, Essex.

Starting to prep on Friday afternoon, will do more on Saturday morning too, then I have a football match to go to.
I think I will save a bit of detailing etc for the day itself at Ford Fair. Don't want to spend the day sitting around and walking!

Had a thick layer of brick dust on it again
Went a bit mad and removed ALL stickers and badges off the car
It now looks like this until I get to apply wax and clean the interior/engine bay tomorrow, if I have time...

Chickens are birds so if you're gonna shoot them you're gonna have to take me as well mister Unless you just buy a gun and keep it in the cabinet

Lol, yeah I know, but it's always one thats so big the bird has obviously had to hold it in for ages!
Could do, Colin!, though my ex's dad has guns in a cabinet (drool), so I don't need to worry about that one!. Alternatively, you could buy a tank, don't need the gun to have fun there. The colour doesn't seem to oxidise much, but id think it's a bit of a pain to keep clean though!
Couldn't agree more with the red paint though . Major pain. Faded yellow doesn't seem to show as much as red though, as it's a very light colour, so your better off!
