Gungeys resto thread official!!

Flexi hoses fitted all round (found another leaker on the back)
Roughly bled but will finish off tomorrow if needed at daves.

Petrol flap fitted, speedo in (although I did have a moment with that! But I will explain another time)

Steering box adjusted

Wheel bearing tightened.

Fuse on lights blowing again! (will investigate tomorrow).

Still need to fix the earth on the rear light properly and seam seal the floor pan, wire brush the underside and stone chip (but not a mot requirement).

Will go through it with dave tomorrow to see if he an find anything obvious, then book for an mot. If it passes then interior to finish, lots of little bits and bobs to accessorise.
But there will be loads to redo, I just want to get it legal right now.

Welldone chap!

So you left at 9:30pn then......

About 9.45 so not bad.

Don't forget Scoops' offer if you need a moment to relax

You are welcome to ride shot gun, but with that camber on the rear, we will have to knock it up a few splines to make it level with both of us in there. It would look proper low though. Lol
