Wanted Enthusiasm. The show season is upon us and my MB still isnt registered for this country, Mot'd, Running, Has brakes, needs respraying, Needs wheels and needs using. In return I'm willing to offer lots of pics of the work over the next month. ;D I really need to get this car done, but i just cant seem to get my bum in gear.Very angry with myself

Well, if you find somewhere that supplies enthusiasm, pm me the details please. The grass in my back garden is now about ten feet long, the Honda is sitting in the front garden waiting for a radiator, can't decide whether to sell my Senator or not. Ho hum. Shrugs shoulders and walks off........

Make a little list - not everything just some things Tick the jobs off one by one - don't try to do it all in the shortest time possible just accept that time will always be limited and make the best of the time you have by at least "finishing" a task even if it's a small one Do that and you'll find momentum builds and you can confidently add other items to the list and know that they will get done I still have my Monza 24V conversion plan - started as 5 lines on a page of A4 lined paper - ended up as 5 pages Added things as I thought of them but having things crossed thro at least makes you feel you are on the way Works for me "Rally Monza" has just two things on the list 1. Strip down to shell/Prep for blasting 2. Buy huge tin of wag!!! Thats as many things as I am prepared to put on the list once thats done I'll ad a couple more but not before or you just look at a huge list and go "aw fug" it's never gonna get done

Don't know about a tin of wag BC, I think I'd go for a dustbin full of it for that beastie. The radiator for the Honda arrived yesterday, but I was feeling like s**t and was out for the count. Missed the postman. So I've got to go to the local sorting office today to collect it. Hope the rain holds off for a while. Hopefully the Honda will be up and running again by lunchtime. The wife used the 12 valve Senator for work on Tuesday. She absolutely loved it. So, her 24 valve may be for sale soon.
