It's getting washed, and then if I find time I'm going to work out what's squeeking on the engine, hopefully it's not something too expensive...

The springs are on and the fronts are well sorted. The backs have turned out to be lower then i would of thought. You cant even see the tops of the tyres so i'm going to jack it back up monday and make sure its all ok.
