I had a day off work on Friday, so made the most of some garage time. I got the Chevy out into the daylight and turned it round in the street. It’s the furthest the car has been for a long time. I took the opportunity to have a big clean up in the garage as well and to make some space for the old unit from the kitchen that I was putting in there. I had also sold the rotisserrie so needed to dig it out ready for collection on Saturday. I got all the rubbish outside in a nice, neat pile and started to put everything back away when it tipped down with rain. I left all the rubbish outside for another day. <\/p>\n

With a load more space to work in, I set about the trim for the drivers side of the car. There were some deep scratches to clean up and it took ages to get it in a half decent state. I think it ended up looking better than the other side, but we’ll see when it’s out in the sun. Despite being as careful as I could be, I still managed to chip the paint. I’ll have to re-paint some of it in the near future I think. I also gave the front bench seat away, as there is no way I’ll be running a bench once it’s finished. I really need to get the motor out for balancing as well so I can get on with that side of life. <\/p>\n
