Today I collected this
Its been stuck in a fairly dry lock up garage since
Well 2008
Purchased 15 years ago and was used has daily transport but then life & a young family got in the way
With the property having sold where the car was stored its now time to exhume it and see if we can bring it back to life
It appears complete bar a few minor things like a battery
Current plan is to go through it - get it running - ensure that its roadworthy - then give it a good clean up
Its had a previous restoration and it looks pretty sound but both front outriggers had received a battering and will require replacing - it probably needs a radiator - a good service - fuel system flushing through - carbs cleaning - fresh clutch & brake fluid - new tyres etc - then we shall see how it handles and what else it may require - I'll start a list - I wont be on with it straight away it will be a in the background type job - possibly even in my sleep type job if the work keeps coming in at this pace
