Still trying…. 

[beko1987]

I can bring wire, crimps, gas soldering iron, switch cleaner etc tomorrow if it would help? It turns over so happily! 

I've got a set of brand new spark plugs too which I don't need

[hairnet]

Sun's out ftw

[hairnet]

We have a winner

@Slowsilveris god and helpers)

WANT

[Yoss]

It lives! 

[Crackers]

Result!

 

 

[Crackers]

Little bit tappety, but it does sound good. 

We have 2 headlights, 2 tail lights, 2 brake lights, wipers, and horn. 

All it needs now is some insurance and we'll get it out on the chippy run later.

I like the way you didn't make any reference to the brakes. Or the front n/s tyre. 

It'll be fiiiiiiine 😉

[beko1987]

Marvellous! We'll get the inside cleaned out tomorrow then

[beko1987]

Has @Ghostymade it back yet? Should have done Oxford services back to the fod by now?

I'm looking at that Herald and wondering if it's worse than the one that was under cover for over 30 years near my mate's home in Bromley. It was slowly crumbling into the ground but I noticed the other week it had gone...

Not as good as any of our guesses…

An excellent day again, great company and really good fun. Great to see people I knew, people I had only met on zoom and people I didn’t know at all! 

Wedgy red things

Many pieces of old chod…

Cavalier running! 

Manta running! 

[brownnova]

Looking forward to the next one already!! 

[HMC]

I felt very British today.  I drove a slightly shabby Rover 75 across the Cotswolds, listening to radio 3, to stand in a field. In drizzle.

 

[Yoss]

Just got home. Good day out, weather turned out better than hoped. 

That only happened a couple of times, most of it was dry. 

[High Jetter]

I didn't realise the Herald was a coupe. Needs saving. Aerodeck looks mighty, a worthy opponent to that yank tank in a stand-off!

How dare you delay out disappointment in your new purchase by seeing to your own needs first!! 

[beko1987]

Not supposed to rain until lunchtime!
