I am getting there slowly - we have a 20 month old little boy so I just grab a couple of hours here and there each week.

Last year I got it back on the road in a very stripped out state. I spent Spring and Summer of 2016 welding up the rear end and neglected the do the front. It wasn't until I scratched the surface that I realised how much the front needed doing. Most of the rot is behind the front struts. The two skins just seem to rot inside out. I was only looking for suspension movement which was causing a knocking noise (I suspect this is the near side engine support.

At the same time I thought the Brembos could do with a minor overhaul. In doing that I thought the front brake lines were probably past their best so out they came and made up some new ones in Kunifer. Whilst on the subject of brakes, I have taken out the compensator valve for the time being but have modified the pipe connections in such a way that it go be put back in if I feel it needs it.

At the moment I am fitting some new (well, refurbished by me (derusted and painted) rear brake dust guards as mine had turned to dust. I found out the hard way that a Q4 has a different shape of guard. Pics to follow.............
