What are your weekend plans? (Is it already October edition)

[HoTWire]

Here comes another weekend, show season is slowing down and thoughts I guess are turning to projects and what to do next year (hint, come to the Retro Rides Summer Holiday it is going to be amazing).


For me the Datsun is still in limbo, and still out of the garage. Which gives me the chance to sweep it and tidy the garage some more, I'm in London on Saturday so hope to get some more bits from The Dungeon, although not much fits in the little C30 in any one trip.

I've got to rewrire the Sunny, so I'm going to get as much ready for that as possible. Might also get some plywood board for the garage walls to hang things from/keep things accessible (an idea I stole from my dad).


I also need to check out the MiG welder my dad gave me to get it fully functional.


and I need to mow the lawn.


Let's see if the Tuesday progress thread has updates from me this week

Going to have my 1st ever attempt at body repair work. There is a nasty scuff on the NSF of my CL500 which I 'Probably wrongly' think I can do myself. Got paint, masking tape, primer, bumperstop filler and some laquer so here's hoping!

Last Goodwood Breakfast Club of the year. Hopefully the weather is a bit less biblical than last years' event!

I'm looking forward to that early morning drive down there, although there is one in Noveember to follow too

Ooops, my bad! So there is. German-themed one, innit. Pre-emissions testing cars, fortunately

First Sunday of the month means Trafford Park meet again. Keeping my fingers crossed that the Indian summer carries on 'till then. May be my last dose of open air car stuff before winter.

I don't think I posted any photos from last month's so I'll try to make amends this time.

I'm washing and polishing the new paint on the Patrol, getting it ready for the MOT. And hoovering out half a tonne of workshop dust that has accumulated in it while it's been stood! I've got the towbar to re-wire as there was some big time choc-block action going on under there.

Started off yesterday by buying a very cheap set of Ronal teddies off German ebay for the apricot polo ( I still plan on fitting the rivieras but I'm also starting to hoard OEM accessories for 6n Polos !)
Today I picked up a few Hotwheels cars along with some beer and tomorrow I'm off to the free classic car show held in the Gnoll Park in Neath , South Wales which may or may not turn up some more tat at the autojumble
