Freed off my tracking adjuster and camber bolts prior to getting it set up on a machine tomorrow morning, and changed the leaking rubber filler neck thing. Glad to see replacements are still freely available & comparatively cheap

Discovered reason for complete loss of oil on my 45
 - ( sump rusted out ) Looking for easy fix any ideas ? Weld in situ ? Removing sump would seem much more involved and don't think new gasket available ? Q: Are the oil resistant sillacone product's any good if used on there own?

Tracking & camber now set up, on one of those fancy modern Bosch contactless systems... all front axle adjustments were well out.

Took her to a local classic car show and was amazed by the interest. These old LT's are generating a lot of interest lately. I think it was the coachbuild quality that people liked.

Mot'ed her yesterday. Flew through and loads of praise from the tester, who said he hadn't ever seen a 30 year old LT in that good a condition. Praise indeed.

Plugged her into the mains ready to be used over the weekend for a spot of wild Worcestershire camping. Might be Shropshire if we can't find any decent Worcestershire coider farms!

Widening my wheel arches with an angle grinder. Yup. Ready for the suspension lift and bigger wheels & tyres. Boy did I have to get my pluck up to make that first cut! Finished result is pretty much unnoticeable to the untrained eye which I'm pleased about but I want it better, so after I have filled the hole between the outer and inner sill at the front of the wheel arch on both sides with mesh I will be back at it with a file before painting. Fun and games
