If she ever relents Tony you might as well go the whole hog, and I'm not talking Harleys.

I didn't do anything to my Rover or ZT today, I fitted a clutch to an 02 Ford KA that still has its sills on. It was an outside job and cold and wet. We strung a cover over two cars to keep most of the rain off, it helped a little but It didn't keep the floor dry. A stuck driveshaft made it harder but, after a few grunts and groans it has a clutch....Labour costs....Nothing as it was for a friends daughter who really wouldn't ask me unless stuck.

Pleasant day (13C) here in Dorset so gave the Bravo a pre Christmas wash and polish.
Cheers Ian

Not an OBRUT though

And i'll admit to hankering after one as a teenage DR in west london

Well I did nothing to my 75 or ZT today

Instead I programmed a replacement key to a Ford engined Kit car, diagnosed a fault on a non starting diesel auto Tourer, 160 upgraded a diesel auto saloon, then witnessed on another car something I've never come across.....a seized turbocharger on a facelift diesel.

However I did obtain a very good replacement upper rear bush for my new dampers for the ZT.

Let's see if it's not raining tomorrow, so I can fit the now assembled replacement rear dampers so I can see what the new springs are like on the ZT.

Oh, and I forgot to put the ZT boot carpet and side liners in the shed, so they're even wetter than usual now
