April 14, 20196 yr The old Leggy lasted but a week in new ownership. Owner says cruising at 80, missfire, lots of smoke and oil out of dipstick, done a piston.
April 14, 20196 yr Hmmm, always seemed to be sounding sweet and well maintained in your ownership 🤔. Hope he's being reasonable about it , bud

Hope he's being reasonable about it , bud Yeah no problems at all hes a good bloke and I gave it a good test run for him to see it ran properly before he took it. He's now deciding on rebuilt or break it 😥. I suspect he'll break it because he wants 400bhp and didn't know that will mean a new 6 speed box too.
April 15, 20196 yr My starter motor has been playing up lately so I had a look in the shed and found one from a facelift. To my surprise it fits perfectly. Gave it a good clean and a repaint to match my shiny gearbox
April 16, 20196 yr And so it begins.....Tidying up the bay is a very Slippery slope . "Oh I'll just fit this shiney bit " 😎 "Oh that shiney bit has made the rest of the bay look shoddy" 😏 "Must Buy more shiney bits now " 😋

April 17, 20196 yr Finished work early today ,so decided to switch the 4 in 1 gauge sensors over to the defi ones and wire the defi controller and gauges in 😎 Soon realised (again) that I'm much happier wealding a spanner, than doing sparky stuff 🙄 Mid mayhem pic 🤪
April 17, 20196 yr I’m a electrician and I detest car electrics, they’re a dark and evil art. More electronic than electrical (bigger difference than you’d think) the stuff in cars. Always a million ****** cables everywhere you look in cars too. Good luck haha!
April 19, 20196 yr Fitted a clutch return spring. I've never had on before, clutch now returns better now something that was bugging me for years.
April 22, 20196 yr Chilled day in the sun decided to paint my rocker covers. Pictures don't do it justice the red paint I used was from eBay honestly one of the best spray cans I've ever used. Camera doesn't show up the pearl in it
April 22, 20196 yr Nice work bud , told ya ..... You'd get carried away with a shiny bay 😂 Cleaning ,Prepping and painting is time consuming but it's relatively cheap and looks good imo 😎
April 23, 20196 yr Not strictly today but forgot to post it up.Got to this point over the weekend then stopped to enjoy the sun and a few cold beverages.Will hopefully get back on it this week get it pulled and find out what damage is done, then I can start working on a rebuild spec and figure out what order is best to rob the local banks inLoud pipes save lives
April 24, 20196 yr Nothing as exciting as some of the stuff on here . Fitted some mist washer jets and received my member pack in the post 👍. Pressure from the jets now seems a bit low, so that'll be something to figure out at the weekend.
