Monday - Part 2:
I really thought that an MOT pass as far as lighting went until I remembered to check the rear number plate light…

Nothing.

Now, quite by chance, I'd seen a spare bulb in the Summer House the other day (while looking for something else. )

Swapped the bulbs over and still nothing.



So I found a spare indicator bulb and used that to test the wiring loom inside the boot.



So at least I know the wiring is fine and it is the bulbs that are broken (new ones now ordered).



Just a few other odd jobs.

I had a closer look at the chips in the yellow paint and it was caused by tightening the grille into place.



So I removed all the fixing brackets.



And removed the grille itself.

So the next job will be to rough up the painted surface so I can get a good bond when I fix the grille into place.

I made a start on cleaning up the second wheel.



And loosely fitted the first wheel that I cleaned.



The car is still on blocks of wood as I still have a couple of small jobs to do on the underside.

But, overall, it is actually quite close to being ready for the MOT, hopefully within the next couple of weeks. < Tough Wood >

Cheers,

Paul.

PS
I even managed to get a poor photo of Jupiter and Venus this morning.
