To-do list shortens

[Chris.W]

For those that aware, I am currently trying to tidy my Galant for the 10th Event get together. It'd be rude not to really as I don't want to bring the side down and since there will be a magazine photographer there I thaough why not go all out.
So, as the title suggests my To-Do list in preperation for the 10th Event get together is growing ever shorter.
Unfortunatly the power mods wont be compleated in time but the cosmetic stuff should be finished.

New exhaust (formerly on Gowfs Legnum) is finnaly fitted,

Drop links replaced,

Anti-roll bar bushes fitted,

MOT passed,

Road tax sourced.

The Carbon fibre roof skin arrived the other day and should be fitted in a week or two.

Re-spray booked (cutting it a bit fine tho, booked for March).

Dent removal booked (painter guy is doing the car as a hommer and wont pull the dent).

Carbon Fibre bonnet (needs ordering, next week or so).

Wheels (to be ordered Feb/Mar).

Well, so, there you have it. I'm gona refrain from posting photo's at the moment untill it is all done and the Event is done as I want the look to be a surprise. Kind of an unvailing if you would.

Cheers for reading,
Laters,

Cheers Nick,

Got a look for it in my head but not 100% sure how it will look finished. Not worried if other folk like it or not, just want to get it right for me.

Best approach, Blue! I'm doing exactly what I want to with mine too. Modifying should be all about making it personal for you, IMO. The only time you should worry about others is if you are using it as a showpiece/powerhouse for a business etc.

Damn work getting in the way!!!!!!
Being sent on far to many trips away, starting to think it may not be finished in time.
Having to rely on other people to deliver the car to various locations whilst im away.

Oh well, rant over!! Hopefully it will all get sorted.

We shall see Richie, we shall see.

When is it? Should have all the cosmetics done by the 10th event. Then a month or 2 after that hopefully I will have got round to fitting the new turbo kit to up the anti power wise.

Bodyshop have done a nice job of pulling the dent, but wont truly know how good it is untill it's painted.

Touch of surface corrosion on the roof leading edge due to a shonky upper windscreen seal.


Well that's that for just now. To see the finished article you will just have to be at the 10th event

Well here's hoping I get it finished. Off to Rotterday for 6 days work, home for 1 day then off to Oman (AGAIN!!! ) for 3wk.
Gona have to leave the wheel ordering untill the last minute. Cutting it a touch close I think.
