A very busy and productive few days at the workshop, getting everything done on time and a vision in red awaited us on Tuesday morning…
Steve’s low mileage MGF 143 VVC that he had brought over from Scotter on Sunday had its minor service done and replacement of underfloor coolant pipes followed by an MOT. A really nice example that we had previously replaced the head gasket on. Good to see him again today when he came to collect.
Patrick’s very tidy TF 115 (in CMU), also dropped off on Sunday with us, from Harrogate, and came in for underfloor treatment, check over of a few things, followed by an MOT.
We refitted the rear screen with his original that we received back from Ireland, Patrick said not to go to any extra bother, but us being us just felt it should be back with its original hood. It’s just what we do! 😀
Bob’s lovely MGF 1.8 mpi ‘Muffle’, also left with us on Sunday, came in for underfloor treatment and replacement of the underfloor coolant pipes. Once up on the lift we noticed that both front forward sills ends were pretty rotten, so Jon set about refabricating them. Everything looking really good again and ready for collection at the weekend.
We’ve still not been able to get the second lift installed, due to one thing and another, so it’s been a game of musical cars, shuffling them in and out!
A bit of time too today to get started on getting ‘Dirty Nancy’ track prepared, a full update on her when she’s ready to go!! I’m sure a few of you will remember her as Ruth Evans’ previous MG. We’re very excited about giving her a new lease of life.
Van stocked up with what we need, ready for a couple of days away, with an early start in the morning as we head down to Chelmsford. – https://ift.tt/H1D5ylj
