Result😊but not so straight forward😵

Probably need a new tank. They are rust traps. But first. Don't trust anything about the restoration. Remove the seat. Remove the lid on the seat box. Take a good look around the tank. Especially when the bash plate cradles the inner tank at...

Very specific!

Hi and welcome! Much safer than a motorbike for a mid-life crisis!

A galvanised chassis and originality will make this desirable. £8k sounds achievable. A new set of galvanised body cappings and a polish up of the bodywork would work wonders.

Hi Folks. 69 88 petrol that I just bought. Had fuel leak from filler hose which I replaced. Put 20 litres of petrol in and it came pouring out underneath...but from where the tank is concealed. Car was restored 20 years ago..but I'm not sure if...

Feller sheep int kitchen. Now int bed. Nite.

...waited ferrim to come down. He dint. Seemed happy to watch me. Eye moved about slowly and kept some distance. Then anuvva squirrel walked diagonal down me garage to avoid bumping into him. Climbed down me trellis and started munching nuts on...

I would agree with the 8k maybe a bit more depending on condition of other things. Although I am not looking for a V8 so these prices will be lower I paid £2250 18months ago for an ‘89 110 station wagon with no v5 (exported but never left) and...

One thing to beware of is that the distance between the Bearings on the input gear shaft and the Lower differential shaft is absolutely critical and is set at the factory, or by the last person who rebuilt it, always assuming the knew what they...

Wot???!!!! Colder than Hull???!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣

£3,500 is the average of the guestimates so far: £1000, £1500 and £8000. £3,500 seems a bit on the low side?

Any Exhaust pics of how thy are routed

Wondering if drinking tons to get a good flush going might help. But then what do I know?

We were getting very near the bottom on the watta tank so yep, it's good to have a lot in there. :)

Another good thing about the Stable matting is that the dimples on the under side mean that air can circulate between the metalwork and rubber, keeping things dry. Easy and cheap to do, hard wearing, good sound proofing. No downside at all.

...ate worms! 🤣🤣🤣

Soz about that. It sounds tiny but the inside of your urethra isn't wide! I totally understand why you ain't getting anything done. A friend of mine had to have part of his urethra replaced with summat, I don't know what. And when all that...

High prices can sometimes be a bit "interesting". We try to avoid holiday times on our ferry bookings but cannot avoid September which is often higher than you'd think due to so many crumblies going abroad after the school hols. When we came...

no need. Head bolts should be re placed.

Minimum 8k. Possibly more if the new chassis is galvanised.

Th Thanks for the advice!

Indeed!

thanks @Arctic2. Possibly I was a bit complacent about the MOT… 🙈😂 We’ll report back with results…

Finally continuing with my plan from a couple of weeks back and managed to nip out on to the driveway and change the oil in the rear diff this evening. No record of it being done but that's not to say it hasn't at some point. This could...

I kept the series link rods. Well I welded two together. Just visible here, re routed to avoid a repositioned air filter.

Has anyone got a pair of the S3 bonnet latch hook things in the spares pile. There are plenty of new ones about, I’m looking for a ratty old galv set with 6 layers of worn paint.

No, moving on !

That would polish up pretty good I should think, good enough anyway. Where would you stop though? Once the bodywork is done, then it's the interior, then the engine etc
