F*** you dumb motor mount, back in at last after tearing my forearms and hands to shreds to remove and reinstall it:

Right side done apart from setting the ride height.  Beer o’clock might be early today:

Yep. The main problems was lower rear right wishbone bolt was impossible to retract without removing the lower motor mount from the frame, which was held on by three nuts / bolts, two of which were inaccessible without obstruction spanners (see above).  The lower motor mount was like sticking my hand into a freshly opened tin, sharp edges on both sides that cut me every time I reached in.  Blood everywhere, but I don’t give up easily.

Wide track kit, just waiting on the longer brake hoses

New driving shoes (to match the car, of course):

 

 

They are surprisingly comfortable for shoes so narrow and should make it easier to drive The Wench without catching two pedals at once (although I wouldn’t recommend walking medium or long distances in them as they have zero arch support).

 

They’re an early birthday present, as I’m now taking a leaf out of my late mother’s playbook.  You could not give her a birthday or Christmas present even a day early or she’d open them if she was left alone.  Her excuse afterwards was always “I’m getting old - I might not make it until then.”, an excuse she first started using at age 43 and carried on until she passed away at age 74.

And the red stripes will give at least another 10mph

I was at Piper Cams and Exhausts today collecting something non-Westfield related but absolutely stunning!! 

 

These items jumped into my car and mugged my credit card on the way...

 

Fast road cams, vernier pulleys and followers for a Silvertop Zetec... should let a few more ponies out...

 

Just have to work out how you fit and time them in now...
