Re: John's (Jordi's Dad) 1986 Tin Top
Arrived in the post discs, shoes, pads.
Set of second hand springs fitted (supplid by me). Approx 2" lift we reckon. So probably just a little higher than standard.
Had a terrible rumble from the engine bay. My dad was 100% sure it was the water pump. Yours truly supplied a good unit. He swapped it and it still rumbled. So once again yours truly supplied an alternator. Its sorted now, rumble free.
He is running close to his credit limit with me now though.
Still to fit is a better bonnet. He also wants to swap the tyres onto his chrome rims. So i now have a load of scrap to collect and add to my pile ready to be weighed in.
Whilst my Zuk is getting its new exhaust on i'm going to borrow his pickup and go rob a load of parts off the LWB.

Springs were from my stock pile of bits.
Its been sat a lot of years. Just giving it a generally good mechical service and body work tidy up then soon as funds allow MOT, tax and insure.
It will be used for pay and play and laning by my Dad.
