Well today was the day and she failed 😂 nothing major we hadn't replaced the little plastic VIN plate that goes on the dash (have it just forgot all about it). Lambda decided it wasn't happy again so emissions were out (think that may be wiring rather than sensor itself) also have an...
I have everything crossed 😂 to be honest have replaced a lot so not worried about any of that just if we have missed something really, will update once it's been for it's MOT :up:
Just a quick update, MOT is later this week :smile:, yesterday drove to Lowestoft (4 hour return journey) to pick up the Pure Motorsport exhaust that I had on my Ph1. The guy I sold it to has broken his car and is selling the bit's off so I said I would buy it back, it was a bargain too so all...
It's getting there, the pics make it look better I think :smile: Alex also checked the timing as he thought it was out, turned out it was so now all timed up properly which will help :up:
Back to the cup!
It's all ready for it's MOT, Alex will adjust handbrake and fit a heatshield that is missing before it goes but it's as ready as it will be, hopefully it will pass :smile: New clocks are in, airbag ECU done, lambda all sorted, £65 worth of bulbs in the headlights, new cup...
It did look great when it was finished, kind of wish we hadn't sold it, will post some pics of the Triumph we have been working on soon. It's nearly ready to come out of the garage for the first time in a weekend or two
Guy got in contact a week or two after it was put up for sale and said he had a client in Japan who collected minis and who had seen the car and was interested could he come up and view for him, he came up drove it had a good look around it and then said they would pay what it was up for and the...
I need to find some pics of what it looked like when we bought it, safe to say it looked nothing like it does there :smile: their is one I see quite regularly driven round town with children in the back and it makes me smile everytime i see it, will try and get some pics when I see it next
Update time, been a couple of weeks since the last one, had a wedding get in the way of progress :smile:
All being good this weekend will be ready to go for MOT next week, new clocks need to go in still but EPAS all working now, airbag ECU has arrived so that needs organising to. Has had brand...
Get's better every time I see photos of it and I thought it looked great when I saw it in the flesh, look forward to see what else you end up doing on it :up:
Cheers Mark, I keep looking at the PMS one too :smile: no rush though although car is not far off hitting the road :up: it's on the next list of things to do
Where do people buy bulbs from these days? Any recommendations to which bulbs?
Am going to buy all headlight bulbs for non Xenon headlights for the Cup as have some missing. Thank you in advance.
Cheers
Gareth
Cheers, it's coming together, I already have a list of things I want to get for it once it has passed it's MOT, need to get some tyres organised before that as well for the Oz F1's I have for it :smile:
Little update, managed to get some more time on the cup last weekend and then a bit more this weekend, interior is nearly finished just waiting on a bit for the EPAS system that I am missing and have some other clocks to go in as these aren't reading the correct mileage other than that as far as...
It's coming together, hopefully get another weekend at it and it won't be far off :smile: will drive it out to Norfolk and say hello when it's finished
