Hi,
I'm new and got a fair bit planned for my new purchase that we picked up this week.
I know its got a non standard grill etc for a Series III, but that doesn't bother me much, its really about getting it mechanically sound so that when my son (@Seth 88 Jnr) turns 17, his first car is safe (and fun!).
It has an MOT til Oct so will likely tinker til then to keep it roadworthy and so we can enjoy it fir a few months, then take it off the road to strip it right down and restore/make good.
I've popped out between rain showers today and spotted some stuff I need to do immediately:
- rear right indicator
- rear side lights
- air box/vent (not sure of right name for it)
- drain radiator
- revamp brakes
I'm certainly no expert, so will very much appreciate thoughts and guidance along the way and expect to be updating this thread for a year or two to come yet!
