Project Sharleys Random project thread - Reliant reliance

[sharley17194]

Got some quality reliant time in, finally got the red car running so added a few parts:

Replacement tank and rear shocks fitted - fuel pipe ran front to back

New radiator installed - bit more plumbing and i can get it running properly

Bit of progress today, fitted the rear brake on drivers side and replaced the flexi, also got the pipes sorted under the bonnet ready so i can start and run up to temp, its had a headgasket replacement and the retorque interval is after 20 mins of running.

Today I got an MOT on metro number 4? The one I purchased to scrap but got a little carried away. As I never really needed it to begin with, I only wanted the 1.8vvc as a spare for the R25GTI I am looking to sell straight on, as this was more of a passion project and saving another car form scrap, I am looking to get out what I put in so if you are looking for an extremely solid, cheap to run Rover 100, head over to the for sale section...

Its certainly that, I had a lot of fun at Donnington making some very expensive cars very unhappy.
