Fixed my washers

[grahamw48]

I managed to bodge back together the switch on the wiper control, but during testing it became evident that the washer pump wasn't working anyway (seized).

£9.95 at my local motor shop, for exact replacement. Job done. I also made a little heatshield for it . MOT tomorrow...I mean TODAY.

Also applied a bandage to small crack in tailpipe...just to 'show willing'

Hmmm.... noticed that the car has done less than a 1,000 miles since the last one !

Hope the MOT goes thru ok Graham

Should do - your car looked very good at Malton meet

Cheers

Cheers Rich.

Well, she failed on exhaust leaking, which I half-expected....but passed on everything else.

2 months left on the old MOT, so gives me time to save up for a nice new stainless system.

Have you posted those pics of Malton up yet ?

One of my mechanic friends has copied my S/S exhaust and may be cheapest to do you one

I will check with him for you

Hmm...yes please.

[grahamw48]

Rich....went over to Selby TVR this afty, and they're going to get a stainless system, and fit it for me next week. (Very nice people).

They also had the car on the ramp and had a good poke around.
Verdict: Good sound car in great condition.

There was a D-reg Yellow 420SE with SEAC spoiler parked up too.

Hopefully the 420 has found another enthusiast owner rather than the dealers its been through lately...

[grahamw48]

In all honesty, it wasn't a car I'd want to buy unless I had very deep pockets.

[Trickie Dickie]

You certainly seem to have bought the right one there Graham
Worth the wait?

Cheers
Rich

[grahamw48]

I really just bought it to 'do up' Rich, but hopefully not too much work needed on this one. Certainly great to be out and about with the BBW grin again.

Thanks for sending me the great pics, one of which I've now put on my profile.

Here's my signature from leaving the car show the other day.
