How frustating, but at least you got it sorted!
If you do get anymore engine issues, I got a spare 2500 6 pot.... :-D
You gonna hit the front uprights & brakes to get rid of the final red?

After neglecting this car for the last 10 months, due to my car mojo being a little depleted. I have recently been working on the Whippet again! I've fitted a few new parts and fixed the handbrake, just got to fit the leccy fuel pump. Then *fingers crossed* Mot time! Sorry for the lack of pictures in this post but I'll get some for the next update.

Glad to see you back Sophers. I had a similar experience with my Midge - first a UJ went, then the head gasket. But now the weather is good its great to be driving it.

I see you're selling "The Whippet" on Ebay Sophers. What's the dream car you have bought?

Shame!
The Citroen has all the cool though, except for the gear lever which is just comical!

Well I've decided not to sell the Midge. The Midge is such a unique car it would be a shame to sell it. Yeah yeah, the female indecisive mind
