Your photo makes your manifold look like it's bolted to the side of the block! I was starting to wonder why I needed a manifold gasket when I did my head gasket back in '83-'84......

Oh yeah didn't need notice that ! The head gasket and inlet gasket fell to bits! Has been apart before I can see that

So sweet. Reminds me of when my eldest was that age. No seatbelts in the back so he rode shotgun with me. It was the only car he fell asleep in
He would scream his lungs out in any other car!

Chris,
I never expected to get one or anything else from this club for free.
How and who do I pay please.
FYI, I have made a contribution to the forum funds and have paid my membership aswell as giving away some parts away at BL day which raised a few quid for club funds.......
Anyway,
Well done on getting BOP on the road and your little one is adorable.

Yeah missus demoted to the back ! She's not hugely into cars but she does enjoy it , I got my sticker the nats weekend, little one sleeps lovey in the marina, hoping its the ride and not the fumes lol, she is a beautiful little thing . boppy done well today , stripped the fan belt , but that's done thanks to martin, he is a gent ! Now its not overheating made it more useable , just got a annoying hesitation when at speed , but will sort that another time, just going to enjoy it !

If not already done I an recommend converting to electronic ignition, just fitted it to my a series powered metro and it's much more peppy.

With that fitted and as long as the carb is good it can't really be much else!
