Gave the car a wash today to get rid of all the sand and crap
Replaced the plastic cowling where the wipers are and swapped my wipers over as i put them back on the wrong way  Shot of the engine bay, it gets finished on sunday, rest of it gets painted and will also get my spare rocker cover done as well

Cars been running fine latly, no problems except the lifter noise, engine and box are nice and tight
Still wating on the rest of the bay to get painted Had its service couple of weeks ago, so i will keep updated, next thing is a set of new rear tyres as mine are lil bit bald but still good enough on the road. Then when tax money comes ill replace the lifters and then i will beable to finally get the car resprayed

Well Update Time
Me and my Mech went and picked up this xr6 yesterday Its a series 1 au xr6, 98 september build, Its a 5 spd manual and its a vct Its been pranged in the side, payed 500 bucks for it It has sat for 4 years , not even started once     This is the prang, unfortunatly it is terminal damage and cant be repaired  So this gives me a change to get some stuff out of it for cheap I have already put my name down for the xr front, lights and wiring loom etc, costing me 300 bucks and i will get the bar repaired, just a slight crack And i will get a few more things as well, wateva else i dont grab will be up for sale, which a thread in the for sale section will be started soon

Good to no, just wondering if any of the first xrs came with the tickford identification plates as i cant find no signs or marking of it
