Good evening,

I bought my first Cerbera this weekend, it needs a bit of work on the engine but runs. Does anyone live in or around the Manchester area? and want to head out when I get it on the road?

Nice - share details. What have you got

Be careful on the roads in this weather, very greasy, easy to swap ends, only accelerate in a straight line etc

Nothing short of a full renovation will do!

Seriously though congratulations on your purchase. Jools (spitfire4v8) is the God of Cerbera tuning - he’s in the Sheffield area I think so not a million miles away from you..

Hello and welcome. I’m in the Manchester area, my Cerb isn’t running at the moment though. I’m trying to break the world record for changing the clutch. I’m up to 11 months so far 🙂

Me too, I'm in Atherton. Where abouts are you? Although mine is currently in the process of having a full body off rebuild.

I’m in Standish so not a million miles away. When are you planning to be back on the road?

I am doing it all myself, I bought it crash damaged so I'm 'rescuing' one!

Was hoping to have it done a couple of years ago but with children etc its taking time. I'm doing it slowly though as I'm getting it right first time so I don't have to ever do it again, its going to be a keeper!
