Winter sort out

Post by Turnip »

Started to get the car sorted for the start of next season.

First thing out is the axle, it is leaking from the seals both ends now. Also found all the studs on the left hand side are bent.
It will be off to JWE in Bexelyheath for a overhaul.

When we get it back from there just need to fit the brackets for the new wheelie bar and then clean everything up and pop it back in.

Axle now back in and wheelie bar fitted

Shifter fitted

New head lights fitted

New lower air filter fitted so I can use the hood with the lower scoop to improve visibility

It's the see-through air filter lid that's doing it for me! :thumbright:

Superb car Jon, it looks the absolute nuts.
The pump don’t work coz the vandals took the handles.

Looking good, all you need now is a Transbrake to go with the wheelie bars if you haven't already got 1 ;)
