Swapped wheels on the graphite car, and used it to haul a Christmas tree home:

For a car that doesnt run this thing is expensive!

And those being Par64's, one of them will probably have a dead bulb.

Put in a new fuel pump check valve. Smoothed out my cold idle a bit more and fixed my starting problem. I should hit up the FPR next but I'm now all out of spare cash. Everything I have left is being saved for the big move to Aus.

Ordered Fuel filter, air filter, in-door window channel lining (One of my windows jammed because the window guide folded and became VERY stuck) and a replacement for the bent front right tie rod.

I felt I might as well do some more maintenance while I have the exhaust manifold off replacing that failed gasket.
