I hope everyone had an excellent Christmas and new year!

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!

Alright bud!! Good to hear from you! Glad the sutor is gettin a lookin! You got any pics of the Opels for sale!?

Howay Ben.

PM me an email address and I'll send you what pics I have if I can work it out! £250 buys the pair. Need em gone before I go if you know what I mean!

Plus it means I can get the Suntor to the workshop ready for when I get back.

Hi Al, nice to have you back again mate, hope all is well with you , .

Hi Uncle Frank!

All good here thankyou, could just do with spending a little more time at home!

I hope all is well with you in the sunny south!

Ben, think Ive sent the pics...!

8) All`s fine down here at the moment mate...no snow at least! :roll: , busy doing Pauls` Jubilee at the mo...lots to do there (see my workshop postings)...still it keeps me out of mischief!

Hey Al!

Good to see you back, still no pink forum I'm afraid, I have been slacking

Hi Sam

Leave the UK around the end of April for four months so that should give you plenty of time to sort me out!

In the mean time working away from home most of the time anyways!

Hmm I dunno if four months is enough to sort any man out
