Build Officially Started!

[twinturbo]

I have many new years resolutions to keep up with...

One is doing stuff for "ME" , so that includes hopefully getting a look at the car again..

I sold my sierra after 25 years and that freed up a stack of cash so rather than just pay off more of the mortgage I have spent a little on myself...

I think it's a Decade since I started!


My plan also is to try and get the car to a state that I can stick it on my trailer which I bought 18 months ago.. and get at least some use out of it. I have some private trading estate land that we can shake it down..

Ideally I want my eldest to have a go and use it to learn more driving skills before he turns 17 in 2021...


My fuel lines are all copper front to back, or they will be.


I did by a Speeduino Clone in November, so when I look at doing Injection I should be in a reasonable position..

There I was thinking I must the only one that's not touched there car in a long time.
I past the 10 year mark back in September last year.
Like Tatey and twinturbo, I'm going to make the effort and get my car finished.

It's been about 12 months since I've taken the cover off it, the list of jobs is quite small.
Clean the fuel tank and lines.
Re fit a panel to the side prop tunnel.
Send away my shocks away for a rebuild as they now have bad rust areas on them.
Replace an oil seal on the gear box.
Then its just a few bit rubber trim around sharp edges.

Hopefully by June I will have enough money saved up to get IVA done.
