It was fun while it lasted.....

Oh KBA, whatever shall I do with you!! :-/

It has taken her approximately one week of being on the road to find something else for me to fix. Two things, in fact! Firstly, the viscous coupling on the cooling fan gave up the ghost amid a series of very freaky noises, and then the fuel tank developed a leak.

Now the fan I can understand, it's old and easy to fix anyway - I'm going to fit an electric one courtesy of Wayne who has a spare (thanks mate!). The petrol tank issue I could well have done without. One, they are expensive, and two, they are a total pain in the posterior to remove and re-fit >:(

Serves me right for getting a TR7 that had been mouldering quietly for years off the road, I suppose....nothing I can do now but put on my oily car-fixing gear and get on with it!

Catch up with my trials and tribulations as I get used to life with my TR7, a 1980 Drophead Coupe in the wonderful shade of Triton Green metallic! Here I shall describe the steep learning curve I will no doubt be climbing whilst getting her on the road and then, more importantly, keeping her there... Credits must go to my boyfriend Simon for all the wonderful pics I get to post here!
