Its taken me all of 2 hours to get onto the blog to put this post on, gawd I must be getting old.
I'm about to clear out the shed at the bottom of the garden soon and this means only one thing, its summertime....almost !
Since starting as a Radiographer proper a couple of years ago and on the "Rota" it leaves very little time to dedicate to my loved one, let alone having the cash.
However to get up to speed I'll tell you the following since the last post.
1/. Not much
2/. Ma in Laws 80th birthday soon, that means its been 10 years since I bought it and thought I better get it finished !
3/. The weather has been rubbish during winter so the first jobs will be cleaning off any rust and puddles accrued.
The engine runs, albeit a bit "tappetty", allthough I set the clearances I think its the timing chain/tensioner making the noise. Find the vid and have a listen, let me know your views.
The spoiler is fitted 80%, needs a full set of the correct screws and nuts and attention to the sidelight holes. During removal of the original valance half of the screws sheared , some came out OK some needed the nut behind grinding off.
So, I'm considering an engine bay tidy up, bodge fix on the heater radiator core and buying a new Master brake cylinder. The old one's been on and off so often to mess with the seals that I damaged the cast iron body whacking it against a wooden batten then in frustration a housebrick !
After they are sorted I'll fit the dash ( I'm sure there will be several posts regarding this subject) fit the window and seal mechanisms and maybe front and rear screens. Thats enogh to chew on for now. I'll post more when I actually do something, If good old blogger/google plus lets me back on !
