If nothing else drastic goes completely wrong in finally getting whole lot together then I should be there and so should she. If all ft members cross there fingers it may happen.

Re: YRN
Christ its been ages since I've posted anything on here! Not really much else to say other than I've replaced the driver's door with one off the blue one. It will have to come off soon as I'm close to ordering the paint. Thanks to Chris for the replacement bonnet looks in awesome condition.
Rate it in the garage section!

Re: YRN
It is more than due an update, I haven't driven her for about five months after the police incident she was taken off the road and the new runaround aquired. I have been mainly caught up with the reshell to even bother with YRN. She's nicely tucked away though and the target is to be back on the road for the summer in all here former glory, just a little quicker and you should all be able to look her over personally at Ford Fair, if not sooner.
Good things come to those who wait!

Re: YRN
I've got myself a heated front screen for her today, In order to do the paint job properly the front screen needs to come out as there is minor bubbling at the base of the A pillar which runs under the windows rubber. So I may as well replace it with a heated version. I got the screen and loom off AW3K for a more than reasonable price, definitely a trusted seller.
Was also good to meet you, Andy. Thanks again for the screen and it will be put to good use.
I did say that last year Henry, yes! However this year I have a job and I'm not a drunken redundant lay-a-bout! This year is the year for the return!

Haha thats probably the best answer possible for that query mate.

Will be real nice to see this car sorted out again as it is one of my favourite mk3's looks wise.

You didn't see the pictures of me removing the heavy, smelly but attractively economic diesel engine out of it and the need for a complete loom change then! Thanks for your comments though.
Nothing much has happened in the last six months really other than her being taken off the the road and accumulating no miles. I'm currently pricing up resprays, I've had some wonderful quotes at £200 but walked when I saw the quality of his work. Hopefully should be back on the road in the near future if I can find someone I want to do it at a reasonable price.
Updates will follow then.
I'm also moving house again so she will be getting her own personal garage instead of a lock up.
