Picked it up before, topped the tank up with super octane fuel, batterys goosed, out with the battery pack again, started result.

Well drives nice, smooth stiff suspension, no power steering due to split in pipe but easy to steer without it.

Problem with brakes, when you press the brake the pedal goes up and down then to the floor then the brakes stop working until u lift your foot off and put it back on? Any idea what could cause this?

Left it ticking over at work then the engine started rattling like mad, bottom end? Sod knows, more tomorrow.

Car drives nice though and will be getting a lot of money spent on it to get it right.
Getting it resprayed same colour but with a cherry red pearl smile

I reckon the brakes just need new fluid if it's been sat for a while. It's not the ABS judder is it? It might be okay once it's had a few litres through the system. Before that though, clamp off each of the brake hoses and brake to find out which corner is the culprit. Your servo could be knackered also.

smack Duhhh Ste, theres nothing wrong with it, i forgot karl jammed a hammer in the cam cover to keep it off the belt and it had came loose and the noise was the hammer on the power steering pump! laugh lol

Yeah dave i was thinking the servo, had a word with billy leyland today though, he recons it`ll just be the discs ?

Am working again tomorrow so will probs get monday off to mess around with it smile

It`s in Dillys garage at the top of our yard at the moment, he`s having a look at it to give me a qoute for the welding, i said i`d strip the interiour out for him so its easier and cheaper, lol smile

laugh Took her out for a spin today, the brakes are fine now, battery charged up, left the car running for a few hours thismorning.
Computer says it needs brake pads.

MOT time tomorrow eek

Paint and bodywork begins next week, keeping the car the same colour but with a cherry flame red pearl and 2 coats of laquer smile

Thinking of keeping the original alloys, what are your views on this?

Several people have told me that, so i`m not doing anything to the bodywork.
The wheels are in amazing condition, just like new.

I have photos to put up, just need to put the drivers on my pc for the motherboard i just replaced so i`ll try and get the photos up soon smile
