Day 3 : She's Alivvvee She's Alive ! We Had To Remove The Carburettor Unstick All The Butterfly's Remove Fuel Pump And Clean That Out With Petrol And Penetrating Fluid Once We Got Fuel To The Carburettor We Then Noticed We Had No Spark We Played Around Swapping Leads And Cleaning Lead Ends We Then We Took The King Lead And Placed It By The Block And Moved The Points With A Screw Driver Spark ! Then We Took A HT Lead An Old Spark Plug Turned Her Over And You Could Tell She Wanted To Start I Was So Happy I Dropped The Spark Plug Tried To Catch It And Electrocuted Myself ( Really ) I Don't Know Why I Wanted To Catch It ... Reflex ... Put The Lead Back On The Engine.. And She Fired Into Life... Well Happy !

We Have Removed Both Wings Bottom Valance Grill Headlights We Are Happy To Report That The Dreaded Rust Isn't As Bad As We Was Expecting The Floor Looks Solid Too.. It Has Been Painted With Roof Sealant When She Was Younger So No Doubt That's Helped To Keep The Elements Away The Top Of The Inter Wings Will Need Repairing Thought We Also Need A Replacement Bottom Valance Any Suspicious Areas Will Be Grinned Down Repaired And Retreated

All For Now
