vocky hopefully get the front end stripped and the suspension parts bead blasted over the christmas period 😃 I want it to look showroom fresh and hopefully keep it that way 8)
vocky Andy said: make sure you keep us updated with pics 😃 clam removed, needs a clean dunno.. front suspension, needs bead blasting + painting
Matt So you are literally going to be restoring this to "out of the factory" condition with the engine from your Veccy then? And I've made this a sticky Neil, because it should make interesting reading over the coming months.

vocky had a slight setback earlier, refitted the battery [after noticing a couple of cells low on fluid - topped up with distilled water] and then noticed a little fluid on the tray, removed battery and tilted it over the garage floor and out flowed some contents :shock: a quick visit to halfords and a calcium battery is now sitting in the tray 😃 wallet £53 lighter 🙁 but not bad for a decent battery, it's only a 063 type and quite small dunno..
vocky been busy painting various bits and pieces over last few days track rod end and upper shock absorber mounting
vocky 'turned a corner' so to speak today, fitted the brand new crash box 😃 you really don't want to know how much one costs :shock:
