Somerset…
From our fantastic digs in Bradford on Avon we only had a few miles to go to our next booking in Frome.
Jim had contacted us at the end of April about his TF 115 (in CMU), that had developed a coolant leak that only occurred when the engine had been running.
Our usual checks all carried out, and found a minor leak coming from the water pump area. On discussing it with Jim and it also requiring cambelt service anyway he decided he wanted to get everything done.
A really good example and his local trusty mechanic, that services all their other cars, says it should be in a museum, can’t argue with him on that, it is immaculate, all the subframe mounts have the original paint on them, and the underneath is so clean, plus only 19k on the clock. When he bought it, a few years ago, it was in a bit of a ropey state and had been left under a tree. He’s done an amazing job polishing it all up.
An enjoyable day, having a chat with Jim whilst we worked, with the welcome bonus of no nasty bolts. The cylinder head did look like new.
We travelled from there, to just outside of Launceston, and are now in some amazing digs that we stayed in, back in May, for one night when we were last in the area. A different plot this time, which is even better, with lots of ducks for company. Lovely relaxing place with only a short commute in the morning. 🦆 – https://ift.tt/2wczGvC
