Ready for Stoneleigh

[Dave Taylor]

The car is ready for Stoneleigh, just spent the last 2 day's checking the old girl out after the thrashing she got in the Lakes at the weekend.

Had her up on 4 axle stands, sorted the handbrake adjuster, and adjusted the rear brakes. I found the knocking noise too, it turned out to be the handbrake cable was banging on the fuel tank.

The lack of horn was just a fuse, and the flashing reversing lamp was the switch, which needed opening up re-soldering, that now works too. Impressed she stood up well to everything I threw at her (checkout the Videos).

See you all at Stonleigh on Monday.

I have one of those 'hoover' hoses on the bottom of the legerra system, usual steering rack/rad issues... its been as good as gold for over two years although it does still get warm sitting in traffic.

[Dave Taylor]

Have you thought of cuting the old one and putting a steel piece in. Tubes available from Demon Tweeks. But at least you got it nearly sorted.

Mike did you get the radiator? If not I think Steve Heap may have one for sale

[Dave Taylor]

OK just give us the nod, and we'll see you there or meet you Monday. We off about 8:15 from Beaumont (now THe Brittania) going down the motorway.

[Dave Taylor]

Mike we are all going together Monday morning, we usually meet at Beaumont Hotel (as was) on Beaumont road, Bolton.
When were you planning to go?

[Adrian Southgate]

I am moving the caravan tonight and coming back for Leggy.
Nothing else has broken but she's still squeaking nicely on the bumps. I am going to remove my windows again and see if its just the two bits of ally rubbing. Don't wake me up when you arrive... I so need some sleep...
