MG Montego Turbo goes

[Jeff Turbo]

So much easier , will finish cutting round the sunroof once the windscreen is back in as it's raining again, The windscreen is going back in next Thursday so it'll be water tight again

[Jeff Turbo]

Cleaned out the interior?? Surely you should have someone to do these things for you Looking good anyway, fingers crossed on the glue front!

As it's at my house and Chris lives in Sheffield, it'll be me doing it. I'm not cleaning it, only moving things out of the way

[Doctordiesel77]

Now all ready to go back in once I've cleaned out the interior of the car

No wind this morning so cracked on. Strengthened a few cracks etc Will let the glue settle before cutting out any openings . Used a whole can on the rear again so I'm hoping this time it'll hold

[Jeff Turbo]

A good job done cheap! I would say 'what do you get for two quid?', but you've just told us....a dry boot...

Oh yes, had to do my mgzt cdti as well as one of the seals was starting to leak and a boot full of water

Rear light surround had a few holes in so welded that up, again not the best job but you don't see it with the boot shut. New seals on and doesn't leak now. If the wind stops or dies down tomorrow I should be able to do the headlining as the spray glue turned up today

[Jeff Turbo]

While I was at Rimmers this morning it would be rude not to buy a couple of these at £2 each for my son's turbo

[Doctordiesel77]

The glue seems to be the critical component, I hope quality isn't going downhill like it has with rotor arms and so on....

[Jeff Turbo]

Dodging the wind and rain I managed to remove the headliner. Much easier with the screen out to find out why the rear had come down. It must be the glue as there was plenty on it at the time. We also did Chris's MGZS door cards and the stick on that only lasted a summer in the hot weather, so it'll be fun re-doing this soon before the windscreen goes back in in this weather.

[Jeff Turbo]

Not be long before it is back on the road...

That's hopefully within a month now, then it's Chris's mg montego efi to sort. Good job I'm semi retired and don't have any projects ATM lol

[Doctordiesel77]

[Jeff Turbo]

Panel all on, bolt at the bottom tightened, hole in the pillar sorted , panel painted, heater back on properly as are the screen vents, wiper motor back on, wings bolted back on. Windscreen surround all painted . Headlining out next. It may not be the best welding ever done but it's on and not going anywhere

[Doctordiesel77]

Looks ok to me, seems to be fused together, so doing the job, better than an undetectable work of art that falls off on the first pothole
