...and is very resourceful!

A/C Condenser and new anti-rollbar, links, bolts and bushes for the ZT-T as they were on offer at Rimmers...

plus...

still in the crate and greased from 40ish years ago...a new crank for the Series V Sunbeam Alpine awaiting my attention in the garage having been sat there for 20 years!

Just need to find the time to get on with things eh!

Cheers team.

Don`t forget to fit new O rings on the condenser.

Cheers Kev - thanks for the reminder...must get those ready.

I got the condenser on the advice of Jules after a re-gas locally - the high pressure side of the system getting to a pressure a little higher than I expected (but it was in the middle of our super hot spell). Hopefully just an ageing condenser getting a bit crumbly!

Cheers Gordon.

The poor thing got put in the garage after a minor bump just before we moved house...and there it has sat for 20 years. Safe and dry but I really should get it back on the road. Now the mortgage is paid off...maybe...just maybe

I think I need Fuzz and Tim to get the ball rolling.

Mind you, my Dad's TR3A's last tax disc has 1969 on it...think he needs them more than I do!
