So............
Could be up for MOT this week, think all MOT things are sorted.
Door locks still a pain, but can now lock passenger door from inside.
Polishing next! And i've decided it is Carmine Red - I'm a bit colour blind

Well not too bad
Failed MOT on NSR brake binding (handbrake) and excessive play in front wheel bearings.
Might be fixed/Passed tomorrow........
Now to get the TR7 V8 running properly and mot'd...........projects!

Passed MOT just needed new rear brake cylinders and a new NSF wheel bearing.
Running fine if a little tricky to start sometimes.
Result methinks......
