OK its been a while since i updated this...

Engine back in all good and built up!! Good times!!

Turn of key - wont start still!! - Bad times!!


Feel like im hitting my head up against a wall with it now.

On a positive note, TMF legend Retro10s is going to cast his noble eye over my project tomato and hopefully can shed some light on why im having no joy!

OK so after months of getting nowhere iv conceded to booking her in to be finished by a pro!!

Got too depressed and deflated trying (and failing) to fix her, so she's goin on a trailer journey to Nottingham where she will live and get finished with my dad's Zodiac (which is having a new engine too) by a couple of old pro's!!

Cant wait - booked in for a months time - cant wait to drive her again!!

Rgrds,

A slightly re-inflated again Wickett
