Ignition lock barrel stripped, cleaned and re-assembled
Check strap repaired and re-fitted (using repair plates)
Drivers door removed and hinge bracket adjusted (slightly bent due to above!)
Drivers door card repaired and ready to refit

Both remotes repaired and working
To do

Oil cooler will be no trouble for you.
When do you expect to make a proper start on it, though I suspect that depends on how well the bathroom is going ;)
A weekends work will see that done I reckon :y. I know you don't need it, but if you need a spare pair of hands, just let me know.

Bathroom just needs the window painting, bath side panel fitting, shower connecting up (easy) and bath whirlpool wiring in.....so a day or so's work....

I have some check strap repair plates here for you....
-
How do you repair the check strap if it's ripped right out from the door? I thought it had to be welded. Mine has been like that since I bought the car, I've just lived with it and been careful to always hold onto the door when opening it.
