New door check strap bushes. Installed the GM rear wishbone bushes in the wishbones I have refurbed, so they are now ready to fit onto the car. I might post up a pic of them as they look very sexy.  :-* :)

I tease no more.  :D



GM wishbones cleaned, repainted, balljoints & bushes removed. New balljoints, new powerflex polybushes and new GM rear bushes.
My omega will have a front end like a Lotus Elise..........................almost.  ;D
New pair of Sachs rear springs in the background also to be fitted soon.
Also the front mudflaps which I took off to clean them properly - very very sad.  :-[

Peered at them, since I have no time to do anything other than work, eat and sleep at the moment...

Saw a yellow one on the M25 this morning (OK, might have been a Caterham) - someone else clearly had the same idea.
