The O'l Rover

 

After a new battery, oil change, cam belt, water pump, faulty sensor, new light bulb, new fob battery, power steering and alternator belt, new disc brakes and pads, new mid- rear exhausted system, some new tires and some minor rust repair, along with a replacement stereo (exchanging one dead technology, a tape player, for another dead technology, a cd player)  I have managed to scrape the old girl back from the clutches of the breakers yard, I had no idea going into this how much work I was actually going to have to undertake, how much time it would take to source all the parts and how much I would owe one very good friend for his time. But finally, today I took the car around for her seal of on road approval and she passed without any problems. I had next to no mechanical knowledge going into this project and coming out the other side I am pleased to report that I now understand a great deal about the way these things lots of people have work.
I recommend to all, so long as you have a friend to point you in the right direction.

Home made lamp, in three easy steps.
1)Get old lamp or internal lamp parts, (charity shop potentially or DIY shop) and empty big bottle of whatever you think looks nice, (bars will give you them if you ask nicely.)
2)Drill hole with glass drill for cable in and out, make sure you have the plastic lid for the top, will help with fastening the lamp fitting.
3)Push old lamp wire through, use string first and tie onto cord, should make it easy, and then re-attach plug.
