my opel cub is in a terrible state right now
My to do list is not all that long, just some sweat and tears and it should be ok
1) overhual 1:6 engine. Pick-up in sump is clogged up, valve guides so sticky, valves wont even move, crank pulley covered in dirty oil and carb clogged with sand?
2) complete wiring loom, redo all connections after wires burnt
3) rusted panels to be repaired and covered with recycled steel plates from old dishwasher, thus giving it a custom shape.
4) bonnet cut shorter due to too much rust and reshape
5) custom build new dash and install custome faced guages with colour panel lighting
6) install fully intergrated, home built sound system to give prospective thieves the idea that there is nothing worth breaking in for, unless they want to steal built in usb charging ports. (the main radio to be hidden in dash with pop-up feature)
7) lay new carpet
8) custom cut and cover door panels
9) new roof lining
10) (a special surprise for the wife) custom made gear knob with silwer St Christopher inlay)
11) spray white
12) special opel decal
13) drive of into the sunset
