well I was gonna do lots of stuff but its raining.
So far though I have moved seats out of the blue hatch iinto the chamade so I can get into the thing now.
I have fitted the colour coded wing mirrors to the red 3 door after about 3 months!
i was also gonna clean up/change studs on that hatches engiens head but I don;t have the drill, so no wire burshes, my normal ones have no bristles! lol |

hmmmm do GSF do a water pump for the 19 16v?
reno want £57 + vat for one lol
from the gsf site
R17008 WATER PUMP R19 1.4 E6J/E7J ENERGY ENGINES 26.50 Add
R17010 WATER PUMP R19 ALL TYPES EXC 1.4 ENERGY 21.50 Add
they can be confusing at times, R19 ALL TYPES on the bottom one - so i would assume yes it would fit the valver |

what makes you think i painted them?
They just happened to come in the boot of the exec along with a cut out bit of a rear wing from a ph1 19 16V and a fooked alternator as well, so I just put them on.
never cost me anything apart from 10 m,ins spanner time fitting. |
