Yeah it's a real downer tbh :( need money and need it quick! Having to sell all the dash electronics to fund it all :'( And yeah I wanna put some dark tint on it if I can get away with it ;)

I felt sorry for him bein poorly so I polished an waxed him today tho

Yup :( I need a lottery win!

Not good news. Engines goosed. Found a replacement but need to generate £1000 right now to go get it. Fml.

Unless I can find £1000 for a donor engine in the next week I prob won't make this now :(

Anyone fancy convoying from Huddersfield with me or joining up with me somewhere en route. Not checked which way I'm gonna be going yet lmao

Worst case I'm looking at a very expensive strip and re build :/ not good. And yeah he will be at the meets ;)

Well he passed. Couple of advisories. Biggest issue is that he seems to have developed another engine issue. On the right bank the plugs have fouled with a bit of oil so could be something under the engine that requires work..... I'm bringing him home to see how he goes and he may have to go...

He he I hope so! He can finally come home then!

Well today's the day. After 6 weeks of work and a lot of money, kitt is off for his mot..... Ill keep you posted!!

THE BIG CHESTER MEET 17th of march 2013!!! Ill still be coming

Lmao well it's 80's that's close enough

Quick update...... Kitt now has fully functional brakes! It's all coming together nicely now!

Went over again yesterday for a catch up with Steve to see how things were progressing - were getting there slowly but surely....... after discussing with him, we have decided to go down the route of replacing the valve stem oil seals, just in case..... no point building up the engine if there...

:) Exhaust sat nicely now on its custom hangers

Lol I honestly dread to think how much has gone into it so far, and the biggest bits like pmd seat recovering and dash build are still to do lol - I think I'm better off not keeping track I would be terrified lol

Bloody hell :) bet that took you a while!!!

I'm sure that can be arranged ;)

Well me and KITT will be there :)

Re: THE BIG CHESTER MEET 17th of march 2013!!! just posted an update on my kitt thread, but to cut a long story short, looking at how things are progressing.......fingers crossed i should still be able to come to this :)

He he the wife got there before me, was just about to post an update! The engine issues were becoming very very deceptive, after the carb rebuild, new plugs etc the engine was still running like a total bag of shite, and the garage was starting to get worried it could be something very very...

THE BIG CHESTER MEET 17th of march 2013!!! I hope to god my car is ready for this meet. It bloody should have been but given the problems he's encountered with mine an this other bloody car that is taking up all his time..... It had best be back in time or I will be so disappointed.

Little bit of an update. Managed to organise a full brake system from my friends car which he sadly plowed into a lorry. They should arrive at the garage this weekend. As for KITT.....well when they took the carb off they found some issues. Very sooty for a start, spring broken, etc etc...

Update form the garage :) sounds positive! Had another couple hours on kitt today, sorted vac leaks, put new plugs in..sorted pcv valve in rocker cover..we on 7 n half cylinders now..lol..but can't c in unit..carb is dumping fuel in..my eyes are stinging its that rich..think we may av a tight...

Lol yeah the dizzy is actually £140!

Things might be on the up. Had a few positive texts from Steve :- Curiosity got the better of me..lol. Just done a compression test on kitt..decent readings..not perfect but not 2 bad..should be within ten percent of each other..at 11.5 percent..couple a bit down on rest..maybe just a couple o...

Had a phone call from the garage this morning, they had to move kitt, and when they did he could tell immediately that there was something not right with the engine. Is firin on 6 maybe at best 7 cylinders. The main concern is that it's something serious. Like a dropped valve or bent cylinder...
