Fix, Fix, Buy....

Wooo hooo...

Ok, I have now fixed the leaking exhaust on the Scorpio and it's now got it's arse in the air waiting for the chassis welding.

And thisevening I have finaly sorted the Mondeo handbrake, a cable had sliped out of the balencer bar.

And finaly... A new one. A 1994 Granada cosworth :) it looks gr8, but the sills are dradful. It was bought for it's 108K engine. But it turns out it's only 81K and as sweat as a nut. Soon to be broken and possibly transplanted to the GT.

new wheels on GT


Due to previous poor tracking my front tyres were scrubbed badly on the outer edge.

So I got some replacements off Flebay for £51, 3 very good tyres and one fair + rims... Oh and it cost £25 of fun driving through the lakes to collect..





Think they are Mono rims, look ok I guess.

Handbrake Failure.

We have now been subjected to the mondeo's handbrake failing... This was actualy about 4 weeks ago and we are putting up with it. I replaced the leaver, but it did not help... I suspect the calipers arm has shifted past it's stop... Still to sort. Other than that the mono is still doing ok.

The Scorpio is in the new garage, and I am in the process of trying to get the exhaust re-sealed... It's a pain!!

The golf is untouched, although I am looking at a Polo GT engine for it.....

The sierra is untouched.. She's been abused as a building hack as I re-doo the garden

Erika the sapphire has had a few minor bits done. The ignition lock recoded, abs sensors trial fitted and passing the static tests.

Not a lot realy.
