Get the rear drums inner face trued up on a lathe , my Imps were 40 thou out and had this 5 / 6 / 7 click problem - its down to 2 now and the handbrake is superb Just an idea

I know -= lets make an estate with the engine in the back - Daft idea that kind of worked if you didnt put much weight in it .| The van version ( of which this was once ) had what must be the biggest difference in front and rear tyres in the history of motoring 45psi rear 18psi front On crossplies = scary shit Factory estate had opening side windows - well sliding ones - twas called the Husky

I had absolutely no idea where to put this on here so this will have to do . Spotted last week at a car show . Autoshite icecream department

Just caught up with this thread and im so chuffed its been saved . Emma sounds a true hero and the only bit of news on this epic thread that has made me sad - love and best wishes to Emma and the same for the Sierra . After reading the bit about Emma the Sierra seemed less important somehow . I think il nicname the car Emma in her honour as long as shes not offended of course

Mine was 600 notes 6 years ago - didnt think they would go up though - its still just a cheap every day banger to me - best i look after it a tad better then . Ive got an Imp van and a Singer Chamois both bought for less than 50 notes nearly 30 years ago - i couldnt afford to buy my own cars now which is quite shocking. When I was 18 in 1982 i was offered a MK2 3.0 Cortina Savage for a crispy £10 note with a blown diff - my pops said id never get the insurance and to be fair he was probably right so i never bought it - not sure what ones worth now but 10 grand is more like it now not 10 quid

Try and find an early Singer Chamois with added dash made from bits of tree for extra poshness
