More work

Well we're onto the next stage, doing the nearside left hand side. Not quite as bad as the other side and we have a new old stock genuine wing to help align things better than the tatty second hand one I had for the other side.

She's called Ella and works at a mainly VW restorers in Bishops Itchington, other side of Southam. It's my friends company, he has had her working there for a couple of years.

Any Boss suitable for a Renault will fit, they used the same splines all the way through their range good luck

Didn't get time to post up on here last night, she's now finished on this side, I'm changing the colour after this so it's just been painted in epoxy primer which is waterproof and unbelievably a near match for the paint I used 7 years ago

Well had a bit of an issue with Harvey this week, came home with Judith and it started spluttering and misfiring, my immediate thought was fuel, as the tank is a little grungy so whipped the carb top off cleaned all the jets and orifices to no avail, still not right. Checked ignition, points...

Hmm my little 4l is being a non starter, it has been getting more and more difficult to start in the morning, and when it does fire, it splutters and misfires until it clears then once even slightly warm will be fine for the rest of the day. Tonight it won't even start like that, it has...

That looks very nice.
