Yay! It has an engine again! Let's hope everything works. Especially the brakes. |

Let's hope everything works. Especially the brakes.
The front ones appear to be seized. Not sure about the rear ones but the handbrake does nothing. When I rolled it off the towtruck after it was towed home (down my downhill driveway) it hadn't moved for three years, and the brakes did nothing. Which is just brilliant when there's a big house at the bottom. Luckily, with me pumping them, and the towtruck driver and a friend pushing it back up the hill, we slowed it enough to avoid a collision with the house.Something interesting too, Brad (MYDATO) informed me that his uncle used to have a yellow 200B SX. He was quite young at the time and so doesn't remember it too well but I wonder if it's the same car? |

Thanks. I still have the wagon but I'd rather sell it whole. I'm fairly certain I have almost everything I need to fix it up, it's just a matter of finding a time and a place to do it all to the standard I want it at. The Weber isn't in the best working order but it works well enough for this car and it should make it sound pretty beasty too! Especially as all I'm running is extractors at present... |
