Over the last couple of weeks I’ve just been working on a few little things, not exciting but stuff which needed to be done..

bled and got some semblance of braking happening on the front, cleaned out the rear drums, no $ to replace bits but got things moving again and have *some* braking on the back now too. Needs new slave cylinder/s on the back though so nothing happening from the pedal. est about 40-50% braking overall currently. I’ve found all the bits i need to rebuild the rears and will do when I have the spare $.

It still seems to smoke a bit from the manifold/downpipe join so potentially duff seal there, and some trouble selecting 1st gear so looks like something needs a bit of adjusting on the gear linkages too. Hoping to have a look at both of these today.

Could do with hooking the cooling fan up too I suppose though seems to run ok without it so far. That being said “running ok” is a conclusion mostly reached from “it sounds ok and didn’t catch fire” since I don’t currently have any sensors apart from the lambda probe so who knows really ;)

Then I think it’s on to closing up the rear quarter panel and fancy stuff like having other sensors, bolting the wings back on, fitting the interior etc…
