She got to Battlesbridge ok , only issue was wandering steering . Tracking done and tyre pressures done to 24psi instead of 32 has made a big difference . Registration is here now , just waiting for number plates now.

Yes still a Nightmare , but with an 11 month old thought it best to camp away from the sheds . No worries , no choke , so don't like cold starting .

This is wonderful, always loved this shape shoebox, when they removed the bullet grill they just weren't the same for me..
i think I'd bring the back down just a smidge more, but then it'd be almost perfect! keep with the updates and pics can't wait to see more!

Apart from a small fuel leak and trying to eat Nightmares Racing , she behaved well all weekend of the Nats. Did by some shiny stuff though , got the spider caps now to put her back to how she was. Not bad for 50year old paint
