Todays Mince....

Andy starts heat wrapping his manifold





Kev starts putting his beam back on





Andy cleans his gearbox





And his engine bay





Still doing the heatwrapping





I labelled the cups 1, 2, and 3 so we knew whos was whos, then realised i could name them too





The Brian arrived so he got number 4





Old cambelt and flywheel on andys XE






The rubbish piles up





I put a picture up between tidying my Estate corner





Kevs old exhaust






Andy and I got the eco loom out





Kev examines the new Cambelt kit that perry fitted for us (Cheers bud!)





Andy is STILL wrapping that bloody manifold





And fits his new light TTV flywheel






Kevs car back on its wheels





And GONE!!!! YIPPEEEEEEE




But is soon back as we were only turning it round





And that was it for today. More tomorrow if i survive Kev's cooking tonight!!!!

I started the day by putting up some old pics:






Out nuts and bolts pot is getting full:





Kev wrestles with the rad fan:





Andy starts getting the clutch on:





I carry on decorating:





Andy gets dressed for the occasion:






I start Drizz Developments Jenga:





And make our first kill of the day:





All the spare breezeblocks removed:





Modded Andys outfit:





Kev tackles some wiring:





Arty Andy shot:





Our new hose holder once we mount it :





Andy making a brew:





Kev STILL wiring:





Me enjoying the brew (with Andys arty attempt, i.e on the wonk ):






Kev gets the devil in him:





The estate gets centralised, cleaned out and up on stands (yippee!!!!)










Glass gets handily stored ready to go off for tinting:






I make an attempt at displaying my boys first few Nikes:





And the XE goes in Andys!!!!
