We like to assist you in your ever expanding database, Dave.
So a bit of progress this week - just stuff sorted really.
Windscreen ordered from National Windscreens - Worcester had run out of stock so being sourced by local branch £140+vat
Black leather FC TII seats sourced by Uncle Timmy, being collected next Wednesday
Silicone bought to seal wheels up so ready for tyres that are on order
Also last night had a look inside the IDA to see if that is the cause of our lack of idle, turns out it just might be.
One seriously gacky float chamber. Gave her a good clean up so hopefully that'll help
See what happens when it gets slapped back together today.

Not a lot is the answer to that.
Mainly because the petrol currently coming out the tank looks like this
And I put the float in upside down.
Battery crackered now though, if the weather is okay next weekend (no windscreen lol) we'll give her a tow and some fresh petrol.

Not sure as yet Ian, probably going to drop the tank out next weekend and have a look but going on past experiences it's not looking good. Fresh fuel and new filter would've been too easy.
Yeah the seats should do the trick nicely, Era gave us a totally mint black S2 carpet too so it shouldn't end up too shabby in the cab.

Top work, Timmers

Petrol... euwwww

Looks like it's been through a tramp's digestive system

That sounds like a bargain price on a new windscreen, is that fitted price?

Cheers Nik, yeah the fuel is a state so something to sort out for sure - can't wait for that.
Windscreen is supply only, we're gonna fit it ourselves. (

Got the seats...

Gonna look homely with the fresh carpet...
Also picked up a brake hose and did first round of sealing on Matt's split rims
Get them dry, second round then tyres.
