Let The Flocking Begin
Jan 30th
Work continues, as there’s something new I attempt this week, and here’s what I’m doing, in pictures: The dash was quite easy to take out (seeing as I already had most of it stripped off, it was just a few cables I had to cut off (Some dodgy wiring under there for the alarm system) [...]
Sound Deadening Continues
Jan 24th
Another Sunday’s work on it before Sunday dinner… tried ice (as suggested by a user on ScoobyNet), and didn’t work much better then what we were doing before (saying that, it was bloody freezing in the garage as it was), so I stuck to what we were doing before (even my lass was involved at [...]
