A small update .
The car is now with the rust wizard but he does more than that.
To date.
Carbs now balanced correctley starts at first button and the auto choke works.
( have removed the awfull electronic switch on the dash that the last owner used to start the car)
Electronic ignition and silicone leads are working well no problems.
Gearbox bands adjusted and we now have a kick down after adjusting the linkage. Managed to do this all without removeing the front seat which you have to do if you belive the manual
Need new gearbox mounts to get rid of the remaing slight bump when selecting reverse its a lot less of a problem now
Corrision.
Good news the rear of the wheel arch back to the bumper on both sides had been bodged with pop rivets and filller this is now out and metal inserted welded and primed ready for paint. ( NB fuel tanks removed to do this)
The same has to be done on the front. However this is cosmetic the main frame is in excellent condition
Sills well we shall see it does not look to much of a problem at the moment will check them out to see if the bodge guy has been in them to?
The floor , boot etc is first class so thats good news.
Pictures have been taken as he goes so once I have them all I will send them in.
Its takeing a while however its much less expensive this way as he fits in the welding etc around his waxoil clients. Fingers crossed for next week or two.
