Well it's home
Given the little love this car seems to have had it's cleaned up really well. A few dings but that's to be expected of a car this old, I guess.
The inlet manifold gasket had more holes in it than a colander so that's been replaced as have the camshaft seals - it was passing so much oil it was untrue - the engine bay was filthy.
It did the 160 mile journey home without missing a beat, no oil or water loss so it's a tentative fingers crossed.
I'll get some better pictures soon (I smashed the filter for my SLR) and I'll go into more detail in
MG Enthusiast.
One thing I do need to sort is the fuel filler flap - it sits proud of the body and looks bloomin' annoying - anyone know how to sort that?
