Thanks Bungy and oldmandon. It's killing me the VR is not working, I have not driven her in 2 weeks and the MOT is due in 2 weeks. If she is not running soon. I am going to be forced to sell the Schrick and D90's. I am already chatting to someone who is interested in the parts but it feels quite sad tbh.

Didn't sort the suspension as he needs the rear arches rolled. But the D90's are on, no knocking sounds so thats good.

So next weeks, is camber, tracking and oh the bloody MOT.

Then arches rolled and dropped to a sensible height for winter. Ah and off course the fitting of the schrick, but may leave this until January/February time with the Schimmel Cams.

MOT today not good big fat "F", both front inner sills have rotted with I have a hole on each side about the size of a fifty pence piece. Under two hundred quid to patch the hole and weld new sills with under seal as well. Not bad I guess, it needing doing anyway.

Well going to sack the Cams for now. Unless anyone can weld to MOT standards on the cheap locally in the next two days. Would have to be a good job though.

[craggsy 91]

Have a word with bungy see what he can do for ya

Thanks Craggys, I will drop him a quick PM.

Well things are moving again, most importantly the VR.

I had the camber, toe and tracking done today by Tutts in Dorking. I got to say Amy there is pretty fit.

So next welding, I contact Bungy but with the weather being bad, decided to use a local lad who is going to plate weld (I think) the front sills which are totally knackered.

Then once passing the MOT, the rear arches can be rolled. I am looking at doing this myself to save money. LOL I have no idea what to do yet....

MOT done, passed. Thank God!!!

So next bit of work is the arch rolling this Sunday. Then its time to drop her on her ass lol and turn her into a snow plough.
