Default Shiny new paintwork

collected car today,



Car has been christened Phil More (Said in Tom and Jerry style "Thomas... !" Philmore....)and is now part of the family

The previous owner said the car was known as Phil as he was always going to fill her up and it seems to have stuck with the family and it’s now know as PhilMore! or Phil for short.

Plugs and points have been changed which made a world of difference to the starting (which is still not good , but acceptable for an old car)

Takes 2 – 3 turns of the key , fires each time , but just doesn’t keep going and feels like it wants to stall when it is running till it warms up

Any thoughts on what to look at next would be appreciated - short term I think I’ll live with it.

Just drawing up a list of faults and trying to prioritise what to look at next, I’m hoping to have the other wheel arch done around Feb of next year

Here’s a couple of photos of the finished wheel arch – shame the rest of the car doesn’t look as nice
