hi folks, i'm sure most of you have seen my postings...by the looks of it, i have sorted the oil leak, so that's ok, i think! so tomorrow eve i will try and sort out the massive clonking i have a the rear. got a very big hunch some anti-tramp bars going to be needed, but to start with i will remove the lowering blocks as it seems to be the diff nose is hitting the underside of the car when it is "winding up"...so...my point is...i *should* be along this week in the death trap.
just a pre-warning, if i do, and i would imagine there will be some "let's look at the engine" moments, it is a complete mess what with the oil and the wiring. so be kind! it will get tidied soon, just want to drive it a bit first!

I'm coming along tomorrow, so see you all then
. I'll be in the Fiesta again though, as the Morris is still not quite flight ready (although really, really close to being finished!)
Where's it going to be?

Surely you know about 'running in'?
I take it you made it Callum? How did it feel?
Older and more confused than I could ever imagine possible.

Those mosquitoes and things were really out in force yesterday. The Minors sounded good as everyone drove off mind you - couldn't resist opening my window to listen!
