stereotype Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Setting off soon, welcome to my first collection thread. Bailey the GSR has been elected as vehicle of choice as father Tickman is taxi driver and because there's a trusty Halfords advanced in the boot that might be needed. I've seen a handful of pictures of the vehicle in question, never been to see it before. Kind of already bought it. Oops. Being collected not from the owner, we'll see what turns up!

The Moog Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Starts with a breakfast shot - very healthy - very different the traditional fags and coffee approach. Good luck! stereotype and stephen01 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tickman Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 My goodness, what spensive cornflakes you have! Not when purchased from Home Bargains they are not. A rendezvous point has been arranged and a confirmation of time is awaited but should be all over by midday.

loserone Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 I'm quite envious of a passenger ride in a well piloted Bailey. Good car. That spoon will cool your tea too quickly though, unless you're in a rush. stereotype 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tickman Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 A very brief look over the car and the priority of jobs are:Handbrake. This I think should be number one on the list.Drivers door handle. If this worked it would make a massive difference. The handle has been replaced because the old one had a piece broken which held the rod. The rod is in place on the new one but it doesn't open the door.There are two more rods loose in the car that we need to identify, one I'm sure is for the lock button but the other I don't know. The rod for the key lock wasn't attached. I put this back on and that works.I can't find a picture of what it should look like so far so if anyone has one please post it up. I know there are a few serial Citroen lickers that may point us in the right direction. stereotype and 320touring 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
320touring Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Holy fuck! I saw that it had been sold, but was unaware it was going to a cool owner! We can have a Citroen Olympics with the GSA:) Enjoy! Tickman, aldo135 and stereotype 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacquer Peel Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Let's off road! It was no bother dropping it off in Perth, plus I got to drive it a bit more. My niece and nephew are happy with the sweeties. I think it could do with a set of new spheres and the the height correctors lubricated. The HP Citroen ride isn't fully there and it's sitting high as your dad noticed. aldo135, Tickman and stereotype 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
