I have just taken ownership of this rather interesting car...
Drove it back "down south" from Kings Lynn and never missed a beat!
Although it seems the old girl doesn't like me :roll:
Blew the fuse for the semaphores (and a sidelight bulb)on the way home... so I was giving hand signals to turn right!
All the "modern" motorists did seem to spot the semaphores (or my arm) without any issue.... and it will do 70 without any problems - which for a stock 1200 can't be bad!
Lifted the deck lid earlier this week to be met with an almighty bang when the lid got to the top.... it appears that the spring in the middle of the deck lid has broken out the section of the lid its connected to!
All just teething problems I hope!
All in all a very nice stock car (although with static seatbelts) that drives like it should - original matching numbers, non-syncro first gear, and retains 6V system through out!
I just have to remember to PUSH the brake pedal!
