however.. along the way there have been a few problems which needed/need to be sorted
the alternator belt being rounded off was solved, amazingly, by rubjonny.. who did a fantastic job of cambelt and water pump replacement for me
stereo system and clifford alarm installed... unfortunately a bad wiring route led to the car flooding when it rained (not my fault)
and now it is time for the suspension and ball joints and wishbones to be replaced...
then the hood etc
then mot and cosmetics
she's an old girl... she is bound to need some loving from time to time
