MOT time today,where it promptly failed on the rot in the rear end of the sills,no big deal as i knew about that already and its down at gruntys as i type this awaiting his attention. Only other thing was the brakes are out of balance,possiby due to me just lobbing all new stuff on there and bleeding it thru very quickly,gonna see how it balances out after a drive about Cant complain really for a 33 yr old car thats been sat about for that long

Well,spent all weekend having it welded up by Alan at www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=gruntys.co.uk&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CCUQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gruntys.co.uk%2F&ei=FPlLT5fsLsKB8gOso9iTDg&usg=AFQjCNFcrqO94lhh3_zC_aYQDlMXjXSowg ,also took the opportunity whilst it was up on the ramp to blow through all the fuel lines and drain all the curse word out the tank. Left side Right side Attempt at a moody shot......also note ive removed the rear panel to try and repair it.....if anyones got a good one of these they don't want can you let me know pls? Left side done and red oxided Same on the right...sorry for curse word pics,were taken at night.... The rear brakes were also removed,cleaned up and refitted so back down for the mot this morning where it was given a clean bill of health for 12 months! Then as i was pulling into my road after it promptly cut out...loss of spark..hmm had just fitted new points and condenser this weekend,chucked a new coil on it and off it went again have ordered electronic ignition for it just to be on the safe side tho Also managed to find time to remove and clean the tank sender unit and refit it,was seized solid so i now have a fuel gauge which is helpful as it doesnt have a trip meter so would have been kinda difficult to work out the mpg

nice one. nothing wrong with the standard points ignition, as long as you use japanese parts get some top coat on over the primer, or it will be absorbing moisture straight to your new metal. those back panels are made from very thin tin and not painted properly on the backside, hence your unlikely to find a better one. how bad is it?

The points are genuine nissan from will Ive just got a bit of a phobia against them,they are the same setup as what subaru use and all of mine now have electronic ignition as i got fed up messing around with points,true what you say tho,if u don't use japanese parts they don't like it! Welding has red oxide on itso should be ok for a bit,planning to get all the sills and underneath done in the not too distant future The rear panel has gone on the drivers side corner,bout an inch square,going to have a go at getting it repaired so see how it comes out
