Agree Paul, that's the set-up on my saff to be again, Koni`s & Ahmed springs.


Car looks stunning fella................


I wish Max would of stayed on 17`s tbh, but i guess the big AP 6pots would struggle under 17`s

 

Looking nice mate but i bet that alternater is doing your head in

 

Looks awesome on the RL7s again Paul

 

Looks great paul ,what you up to on the back panel

Nice one Paul, car looks stunning in those pics bud.

Glad you had a good day. I might have a brand new alternator i can get for FOC, will make sure its a cossie one tomoro and let you know.

 

he means they are cracking Ron,

Looks amazing Paul

 

Well & truely mate. Just waiting on the new alt to turn up then i can get it swapped over & finally get the heat shield on & see if that does the trick.

Dave...Back panal was jut getting cleaned as the plate was coming off

 

cars looking super sexy as always have you anymore vids or her in action

 

Only got the one Patrick. Taken by LeeR21 when we went the PF Daddy Thrash a few years back.

 

So, you keeping it then Paul??

 

You animal Paul!

Is the Antique staying now then mate?

 

wikid

 

Is it fook staying....im just trying to enjoy it.

 

I bet you've got it this time next year Pauline....

 

If i do, it wont be on the road, as once the tax runs out in August ive got no plans to re-new it next year mate.

 

Are we going to catch up somewhere soon pal??

You going to Ford Fair etc......

 

I'll be at Combe & Fraud Fair mate. I'll be at National Day but without the car mate.

 

Well i'll be @ all 3 so we'll have a chinwag dude..........

 

After all you've been through you should stick it away over the winter paul just in case m8.

 

Update:
New Lucus Alternator has turned up thanks to CosKev3

All that was needed was the old screws taking out & replaced with some longer ones to fit the heatshield....


Job Jobbed & will fit tonight.


Hopefully with a new battery that will be the end of the alternator problems. While it's all off, im gonna make a heat shield for the engine mount aswell to stop as much heat as possible doing any damage etc...

 

Where did you get the Alt heat shield from Paul ?

 

Nice one Paul, KEEP IT............

 

Seconded fella!

 

Martin out the club gave me it last year. Just 2 lazy to put it on

 

Update:

Alt issues are finally sorted.....(Fingers Crossed)

Fitted it & left it, so took it the Cheshire meet on Wed & all seems ok. Nice healthy 13.7v constant. Also fitted the new MSD fan switch & it's doing it's job & not draining anything or staying on for too long.....

Heat Shield & wires lagged up...




Just need to get the PS pump on now as mine failed on Wed or should i say Kelv broke it as he was too busy out enjoying himself & doing donuts

 

Nice one Stick...............

 

Nice one paul.............................................. .......now keep her.

 

 

glad you got it sorted mate, i now get exactly 14v after changing mine, it must have been dodgy for some time as it used to be lower than that, what did yours used to read?

 

Anything from 12.5v to 12.9v mate, but even on a long run the fans would be on all the time & would just sit at 12v.

 

Glad to hear you have fixed the alternator problems.
Whats next for the old girl?

 

I never have had the fan problem, although I do have an alloy rad, my voltage was somewhere similar to yours a touch higher, hopefully we will both be ok now eh, I bought a new battery today as well just to be safe

 

Little Update:

After a few PM's asking was I selling the old girl, i thought id drag her out to give it a wash and see what should i do. Charged the battery up on Wed & started 1st time since putting it away after ND, then it died I just left it & came back today with some petrol & re-tryed. NOTHING, took the plugs out, gave them a quick clean & fired & purred 1st time. Once it was warm i took it for a gentle drive round the block (sideway) i forgot how heavy the clutch was & how crap these shonky things are, but one thing i made me do was smile & think id be daft to sell it. So fo rthe 1st time in a long time. I LIKE MY CAR

Just a quick wash, didn't bother polishing it....



The new RB sticker...


Nothing new under here apart from the battery....


Only plans ive got is to change the head, whether it's a lighty ported head or just a decent standard head. Apart from that, it just do a bit of paint to get rid of the stone chips, find some wheels & see if someone will do an underbody resto on it as im too lazy Then try & enjoy it when it next comes back out.

 

Looking great as always paul

 

LEGEND!!

 

Still looks great Paul. Mark (cossiecrazy) is starting an underbody resto service i think. Maybe worth PM'ing him?


Mart

 

glad to see you've found the love again for it mate. still looks tidy after not seeing it for ages.

 

Awwww look at that, still looks a good'un!

Should of txt me today mate, i would of came down, would be nice to see good old Vicci.

 

find some wheels? it looks well on the rl7's mate
