I've got it back!!
Discussion
After two long years, I've got my 390 back.
The list of work that has been carried out follows (sorry, it goes on a bit!):-
Remove Body.
Strip to bare chassis + shot blast.
Replace outriggers + attend to other areas of corrosion and cracked welds.
Zinc paint and powder coat chassis and all suspension components.
Replace all bushes, wheel bearings, all U/J's.
Replace engine, gearbox and diff mountings.
Rebuild all brake calipers.
Replace discs + pads (drilled & grooved disks + green stuff pads).
Replace all fuel and brake pipes for stainless steel braided.
Replace shocks and springs (AVO).
Other items include fuel pump, fuel filter, swirl pot, steering rack mounts, ball joints, trailing arms, drive shaft nuts, battery, exhaust.
Basically, it's a new car underneath. All nuts and bolts are new, and it drives brilliantly (although a bit hard at the moment).
If I've forgotten anything, I'll add it later!!
