No up to date photo's but just uploaded these and thought id post something :)

 

Got the tyres off a couple rims:

Never knew Dunlop made stuff for BL    :

 

And got the T-cut out of dusty storage and did some cleaning up on the bonnest s it had/has some heavy scoring in the paint and when i finished the left side of the bonnet the right looked alomst grey!  :

 

 

Ohh and the only reason i T-cutted the metro abit was because a bird (or three maybe) decide to lay a mahoosive crap on the roof/gutter/side of the car, must have been a fat bird to crap that much in one go! Dammmm!!!

Not done much on this recently apart from the wheels (which are still not done  ), but went out today and saw that it looked abandoned:

So gave it a wash and clean up:

 

And litraly 5 seconds after i finished with the shammy cloth this had appeared:

 

So because of the area we live in i didn't bother with anymore wax/T-cut atal as it'd do more harm than good

 

Lastly i went round to the back after the hose down and noticed this  :

 

I guess this means my right rear arch is "Stanced" then ? haha, joking aside i think/hope its the un-even ground that its sat on and not the hydro unit, i suspect it might be as the wheel to arch gap is Zero, couldn't even fit a damn shim in that gap!

Sad regards,

Cliff

hi cliff ,

sorry to hear your selling a friend of mine in accrington posted

thanks phil

 

I'm not selling your friend Phil   plus i can't post as he's too big for royal mail

 

Joking aside it is a shame and i want to make sure it goes to someone who's going to have it as a metro and not an engine donor because that'd be awful for that to happen, id rather shuv it up the back of the garage on soil and let it rust for a few years under a sheet than sell knowing its getting scrapped for the 1275.

 

Could you point me in the right direction for your mate please Phil ?

EDIT: found him haha

 

Cheers,

Cliff

MOT tomorrow morning or monday so just got it ready, gave it a wash and put a new rear bumper on for the offside fog light as the other fell out in the crash but ready and waiting with all lights working and running nicely.

 

Only issue is, i turned it round and parked it up top tonight and the rear suspension definatly needs pumping up as the exhaust is scraping at times, should be Okay for MOT though ?

Looking good mate! Would love a metro someday, good luck with the MOT

Good luck with the MOT Cliff.

Sad to hear you are selling this but i know what its like to have to part with things that you just can't justify keeping.
