:lol: pics arent the best are they :)
good to catch up with you bud.
ive found the driver side wing mirror in silver if you ever need to replace that side - i was keeping that to use the motor unit if mine failed but i dont need the casing.

yeah the night pics didnt do it justice but it definitely looks 10 times better, should be okay on the driver side as that is all in one piece

so i thought id get the lude prepped for the MOT in a couple of months so purchased 2 handbrake cables and a rear wheel bearing

the wheel bearing was so easy i laughed
Image

handbrake cables were not so laughable had to cut the old ones off the brackets at the calipers (nightmare). then i proceeded to push out the pistons clean them up and put back together ssoome finished pics

now baring in mind i pushed the piston out on the o/s with the footbrake when it came to bleading nothing came out the nipple so removed the nipple had a look no hole :o so tried again to bleed with the nipple out again no fluid. took piston out again no fluid getting through the caliper what so ever so was on fleabay for new caliper got reconned one for 50 quid and i now have a handbrake that works

now just a set of front disks and pads dont see why she shouldnt pass

hmmm just found this starter build on here I must have forgotten about it is there anyway to tie this one up to the 2nd one I have started or vice versa?

on a side note does anyone remember vice versa sweets...they were quite good.
