Just had one of the best days working on Milly.

Got her engine running after its spent 2 years sat in a shed.

Fixed numerous '5 minute jobs' that always seem to hang around till near the end of a rebuild.

Fitted the rear seat belts.

Propshaft back in and Wheels on.

Only bad bits today were fuel pump has gone sticky again (new points ordered)

And Round heater matrix is Pishing water out of the bulkhead cross member like its going out of fashion. Caused much confusion for a bit cos I couldn't work out why water would be anywhere near there (owned a Later model before) That job can wait till later (must remember to do it before winter though

)

Cheers Folks

Well Milly's 50th birthday is in April so I would like her to be up and about by then but we'll just have to see.

Pete I've still got those bits from Callum So I could pop them around.

Definatly Carlo I thought of that last night but too late

Now have also figured where the oil leak was coming from (Coil leaking) and Have an new heater (Peetee strikes again)

Dan I might take you up on that as I need an extra foot to sort out the brake light switch.

Well at least I can actually talk Minors at tommorrows Sadmog meet
