I bought this car 5.1/2 years ago as a non runner with 6 months MOT. A gallon of clean fuel, some easy start, and £200 later i drove it home. It needed some welding for is first MOT with me, which I paid a garage to do. Since then it has had very little done to it, some dodgy paint, and a rear subframe when it rusted through.
A few months ago, I moved house to somewhere with a driveway. Much more secure, so worth tidying up the car. Problem is, there is a 12" high metal fence I have to drive through to get to the driveway. One day in the snow a few months back, I slid downhill into it and touched the arch cover. This pulled out a huge chunk of filler I didnt know was there.......
So, a tub of filler and a dodgy brush paintjob later, I have discovered 3 more areas of filler too. I have booked a week off work, starting the day after Stamford Hall in 2 weeks. I have made a list of bits I want, including inner sills, door step panels, boot floor, rear quarters, rear valance, front screen, doors, all window rubbers................In true Time Team fashion, I have just 7 days to do it. Its my daily driver!
