Been busy with work, blowing up and rebuilding the little Dolly... Long story, but I managed to get home for two days over new year!
Sprint found a new home....
Two Ascona's for sale....
Cavalier running well after I replaced the fuel lines.... Another long story but not for here!
So will hopefully be sold so I can get some tax exempt motoring in... P6, Triumph 2000, or Wolseley 18/85.... Choices!
Which brings me to the Sun Tor languishing on the drive, untouched and unloved...
Replaced the bonnet today as a hole had appeared, with one from the shed and now looks wonderful in sandglow... EEURCK!!!
Removed the battery to trickle charge, some surface corrosion... Cleaned it up a little, treated it then repainted in black smoothrite. It appears to have been a replacement panel, unless red primer was used in the factory?
Some money has been spent on this car over the years, its just a shame the execution of the repairs leaves a lot to be desired.
Wads of filler between the wing and inner wing under the bonnet.... Hmm nice!
So what's been done to date?
New back door, new bonnet, some painting inside on the woodwork and her running again... Still can't get over how well the little A series runs...
Later folks!
Hi Al, nice to have you back again mate, hope all is well with you
