Waiting...........

 

[adampat84]

Well, I still have no internet at home but fortunately I am back at work and have some time in my lunch break sooo...

 

Here is the "Newbie" :

 

 

 

 

 

It is a happy little car.. not particularly well look after by the previous owner.. let it go a bit. It is requiring TLC..

 

I have already:

• had the wet carpets out and replaced them,
• change the fan belt as was so loose that the crank nigh on burnt through it..
• Greased are the nipples but i fear it is to little too late as i have a bit of steer from the rear due to worn radius arms! Most unnerving!
• Hazards Fixed
• New front tyres

I need to:

• Brake pedal doesn't return fully so the pedal box need to come out.
• Front offside wheel bearing shot..
• front bumper centre bolt gone (noisy rattling at idle)
• broken bonnet strap
• Heater Intermittently works
• Rod change oil leak
• Gearbox need overhaul (crunches into 2nd)
• Oversills!!!!! Grrr!
• Rear seat back needs sorting
• Remove rear fog the is not even connected???
• Replace arches (previous owner ran it low and rubbed through the arches)

I would like too:

 

• Get rid of the centre exit exhaust
• 10 inch wheels

 

Well that is it for now.. Back to work!

Yes, the guy who did the work chose some good bits.. I don't want to change much.. just a few tweaks
