Thought I'd let you know how I have been getting on with the Dolly I purchased last year.
Initially didn't do much just drove, done a few shows and enjoyed.
Replaced an engine mount that was definitely past its best.
The steering was a bit tight so with the MOT looming and a replacement rack from the club that was changed.
Started to investigate a crusty bit
on the nearside jacking point which turned out like this....
Started repairing
Can't find any pics of completed repair but pleased with the result, will post when i find them. Also had to replace all the trim clips for the sill trim!!
Ordered some ignition parts, plug tubes and ally carb mounts from the club which were duly fitted. Had a bit of bother with the leads and ended up sending one back to Malc. Will fit this when its replacemrnt arrives. Turns out plug tubes had already been fitted
but put the new ones in anyway..Booked an MOT for last Saturday and it was a FAIL!!!!
Offside lower balljoint and uneven braking at the front.
Onto Rimmers and got a new balljoint, discs and braided hoses.
Whilst waiting on these noticed a little crusty bit at the bottom of the offside rear wheel arch. No pics of before but this is what the repair looks like.
So last night fitted the balljoint, discs and hoses, bled the brakes and its sitting outside the MOT centre tonight ready for a retest tomorrow.
Still having a few starting issues but will investigate after I've put a few miles under my belt.
Hope you enjoy
Craig
