Don't be such a bunch of wusses! Get some layers on and get out there. 10 minutes of tinkering and you'll be peeling a layer off. :D

Start off with a quick decluttering of the cockpit. That's usually enough for me to find several tangents to go off at.

Unfortunately I'm on Nights... still working over christmas too and got a list of domestic chores to sort before any Landi tinkering.... but then I have just rebuilt the top end of the 101's V8 so can't really grumble. :)

Goarn! Stop reading and get out there , It'll be dark soon! 8)

Wish i had time to fit the lift kit, up grade the suspension, fit new tyres etc. :evil:
