Havent updated this in a long time
Well i found my self a job finally, been working since before xmas Nothing much has been done to the car expect Having to replace the radiator, as something had put a hole in it and it started leaking everywhere, So i replaced that to find that the transmission oil kept leaking out the trans cooler in the radiator for some reason, they reckon that it was my trans line, But i decide instead of stuffing around just to buy a trans cooler and get it installed So all thats fixed, waiting for my spare rim to come back from getting repaired repairs becuase the other day when it was pissing down with rain i hit a pot hole with the left hand side rim and it bent it Still drives normal but the steering wheel has a slight shudder to it Should have the rim sorted out hopefully this week with a wheel alignment and balance Got my cruise control buttons put back in finally as well, yay Also orderd my stone tray from ford as well, and got a bag of 20 scrivets from a memeber on aff Also by chance at the wreckers the other day i came across a gold au with very good front guards, paint in very good condition, no dents and just slight marks which will buff out, couldnt get a front bar though as they were all stuffed So ill just order a brand newy in primer and put that on the same time as i put my inner gurads back in and the new front guards as well Also orderd another header tank to replace my murky looking one as well But yeh been quiet busy with the car lol,
