Just mucking around fixing up a few things on the car whilst I’ve got some time. I had 2 fairly serious rust spots on the boot and I’m trying to patch them without having to sand the entire boot. Hopefully during the polishing process I can achieve a reasonable blend.

The other thing I’m working on is fixing up the peeling paint on my door handles. It seems like Holden used crappy paint as I’ve noticed other VT Commodores have the same problem with the paint flaking off around the door handle. When I was sanding them, it didn’t look like there was a proper primer on there.

I’ve had a rattle coming from my engine bay, I’ve already changed on of the pulleys but it was still making noises so I thought I’d replace some other ones. Rather than change the entire pulley assembly which cost about $30 each, I picked up some new bearings for $10 each.
