I like reading about other people's misery in trying to fix old shite so thought I should really start my own thread ......
I promise little in the way of regular updates but will do my best to keep a log.

Sold this today. Not quite sure how I managed it but the guy had clearly decided he was having it before he arrived. Anyway, happy days. 
Note: photos make it look much better than it is. My paint job was shocking.
Now awaiting the arrival of a granddad Saab, a 9-5. More news on Thursday hopefully.
