About a month before the roundabout I took the front o/s out.
Went to a scrap yard, got the steering arm, plus other steering bits, new front wing and a couple of new wheels and tyres.
All for £1.50.
Parked up were three Vauxhall Crestas, looked immaculate, asked why they were there. All the floors were rusted out along the sills, only hanging on by the front and rear bulkheads.
The Talbot was scrapped as I managed to hit the same area twice, took it in to be tracked up and the great H beam chassis was cracked. In those days they didnt weld or plate up damage.
Get some pics up, my one was shiny black, white sidewall tyres!!! Apart from a sky blue o/s/f wing!!!
