Replaced the suspension cones on the rear and the shocks on the front.

 

One side was a bit of a fight to separate the rubber cone from the trumpet but other than that all plain sailing :D .

 

Not that obvious difference on the worn suspension cones:

But what a difference the whole operation made :D :D :D

Well this was yesterday, but driven it 30 miles to the classic car garage as its the MOT time, drove great on the way there, fingers crossed its an easy pass and not the dreaded Emissions fail that I seem to get most years! Leaving it with them for a few days so they can go through the old girl first. Then I am going to make the decision to sell or not to sell. fancying a change possibly.

Put it in for an MOT and passed with the emissions being the lowest they've ever been 😳 To celebrate, filled the tank and turned up the boost 😎

Struggled with putting the companion bins at their original place. Looking for two extra hands tomorrow to give them some more persuasion.

I've made a start gathering together what i need for this coming winters engine bay freshen up. Managed to find one single NOS champion spark plug cap then found another seller selling six of the devils!

 

Other ignition items, correct period spec wire hose clamps and stuff is on it's way as well
