got a few other bits as well more on those at a later date

atm I'm struggling to get it finished, I have considered leaving the MOT till the spring as I'm short on cash, and things like wasps nest keeping cropping up lol

will keep working on it over next few days to see if I can sort all the little jobs for MOT

My SR never had an unleaded sticker, as unleaded petrol didn't come out till @ 87/88 iirc she use to run on 4 star, until it was phased out:mad:.

So the Sport's wouldn't have had them either;)

Looking good though, nice to catch up with you last week;)

my C reg 1.0 had one tho I think ?

it was only €1 anyway lol

Maybe the stickers were fitted after the timing had been tinkered with to suit unleaded;) (ignition retarded 3-4 degs)

could be

ill just fit it as ill be using unleaded lol

was good to meet you too, thanks very much for bringing the parts down as well :)

Not using Super Unleadedlol

Well after working on the nova today I have made the decision to leave the MOT till the new year

To much to do, just small fiddly jobs really, and to little cash

Don't want to rush it for the sake of a few days driving before even worse weather kicks in

not sure 100% its the right thing to do ?

on another note more bubbling is happening on the roof so it looks like the whole roof will need to be painted which has annoyed me to say the least

bled the brakes through today, and sorted the front bumper with flashes, some pics over next few days

Edd

Is this bubbling a result of acid dipping Edd?

possibly

I think you have done the right thing chief, get it out next year when it's perfect :)
