She was fine the last time I drove her down from Scotland. She is moored up as I am away at the mo. Got to fit new track rod ends and fit a new rear N/S calliper as the handbrake mechanism is jammed open again but that's all for when I return to her.

Glenn ,your new house and superb garage look very nice. I must get my finger out and build my new garage as it must be great for you when you want to do some work on your cars.
Since the grotty winter is here i thought it was time to have a bit of a tidy up in the engine bay. Its ideal having a garage cause i can just leave the car in bits and do bits to it at a time.
The osf chassis leg covered in a few years of grime and crap.
When i first bought the car,it had an aftermarket air con system on it which didnt work so i ripped most of it out except for the air con heater matrix do da.
Time for this to go.
Which left a hole in the bulk had panel. I alao removed the black bulk head panel which was rotton.
I made up a metal panel and got my matw to put a few small welds on it. I was dreading this and had the compressor running and a air gun ready in case there was a fire. I used stikaflex to seal the panel up. Also i painted the panel too.
Looking good glenn. I've a list of jobs to do on mine but haven't done anything on the car at all since September apart from start it up every week or two.
Great build thread bud havent fully read it all just brisked through but as soon as i get chance i will do, from what i saw/read looking very good ��
Thank you matey. The car is part of the family now. The wife hasnt driven it for years. She said she couldnt let me sell it cause its a big part of our life now. We have owned it 10 years this year.
I had a little feature of my cossie again in the rallye news for the second time.
The cossie has ran out of mot so ive got it booked in this thursday. For the last 7 years my mate has moted it for me but now my mate works with me. We are taking it to the same garage so his old work mate will mot it. Hopefully it will pass lol.
Also on the 12th of march just gone i have owned the car for 10 years. Time flys.

Just about to pick it up and have a read through, 10 years in May for me as well Glenn
Hopefully mine will pass. Tbh the car hasnt been anywhere. I just hope the mrs doesnt go into labour lol.
Hi Glenn,I am sure it will pass its MOT as you are like me and keep on top of things. I have never worried about the yearly MOT on mine and its passed 21 since I have owned it. The latest one again with no advisories. Just had the number plate issue 2 years ago as mine with the honeycomb background are not allowed any more.
Yours is looking good with the latest tidy up you have done. I have just put my brand new Ford amber front indicator lenses on and it looks much better than the wrong clear 4x4 ones .
All the best for your new baby.
Yeh i do my best to look after it. Its been hard not using it but like ive said before i dont want the bodywork to be ruined.
The plan is to get the cossie moted and hopefully when the baby comes i wanna bring them home in the cossie.
You will have to stay off boost if you do that!! When my Son was born he came home in my 1600e Uren Savage.
When He got married my 2wd Saff was one of the wedding cars.

I think that's being very modest,seen you're article in rallye news,couldn't fault it except a wavy rear window seal
Im just honest matey. I just try to keep it as mint as i can. I know the seal is a bit wavy. I dont know why. I might have to take it off and have a look.
