I cleaned it with a wet sponge and then leathered it, the water was black! Its amazing how the colour gleamed and shone threw, just with water!

Needs alotta work, but its gonna be done! :cry:

I had a look in the boot and it is creased inside there...Will get it pulled and un-creased...I think there is an MG metro garage in Ellesmere port that will do this for me...

Made an effort to get the old girl started today (My Mini :cry: )

After 8 years of lying dormant...it started!!! Took a bit of time, but she started in the end... did the cheats way - poured petrol in the carb (is it the float chamber of something?? Dunno... :huh:

Clutch is a no go,, very hard on the pedal but it moves (left it to soak in some oil)

Well, thats todays work done :cool:


Tom :cry:

Cheers, :thumbsup: theres a lot of work to be done.

It seems as the petrol isnt getting from the tank to the carb, blocked - need to investigate further... pump etc

Well, what do you expect for 8 years! :wink:
