Rough Luck Racing Update
What a busy week that was, didn’t even get chance to do a daily blog! So here’s a weekly one instead…
Monday was spent at the workshop, on Paul’s TF 135, he wanted us to check over to make sure that it was viable to spend money on. We found it to be a very sound car and well worth keeping on the road. Head gasket replacement and cambelt service carried out, radiator replaced, heater control valve replaced and a few other bits sorted.
A visit to Peterborough on Tuesday as ‘Meg’, Simon’s TF 135 was having some issues, on investigation we found it be a faulty alternator, so we replaced the regulator and all good to go again.
Back in the workshop on Wednesday for head gasket replacement and cambelt service on Arif’s striking looking TF 135 that he had inherited from his father.
A very windy day on Thursday near Barnsley, where it was great to meet Pete for cambelt service on his very tidy TF 135. Date booked in to the workshop for some further work later in the year.
So that brings us to today, and a trip over to Binbrook, near Market Rasen, for head gasket replacement and cambelt service on Dan’s fab looking TF 135 that he had recently acquired from a friend. Date booked in at the workshop later in the year for some other work.
The first few days of the week were originally booked out, and had been for many months, for a whole list of things, but we found out last minute that the car had been sold and the owner hadn’t let us know. At least we managed to get through some more of our waiting list and make some others happy!
Storm Kristoff was a bit of a challenge at times 🥶
Back in to the workshop tomorrow and Sunday to finish off the welding on the TF 135, and to make a start on the next big job on the Stepspeed we have in, that made it’s way from Scotland.
