sadly a failure..but only because the n/s front mounting point is rusted through. So a bit of welding and we should be ready to rock.

Fun and games on the way home when the clutch master decided not to operate properly...5mph all the way home!

hopefully back down for the retest tomorrow..will keep you all posted :bla:

So with it all cleaned up and after my old man has routed through his shed for some decent metal, he took Lee's "Secure and Stong, not Neat and Pretty" approach :good:

thanks for all the comments guys :good:

Out of the complete blue and by chance I have just come across another r21t owner.
I called Bucks Car Panels to investigate if the outter skin sills are still available and as I told the guy which car they would be for he told me he also owned a K reg Red 21t. :banana: :banana:

After 15mins of chatting on the phone it all feel into place, previously Phil had mentioned that there was another 21t in Naphill, which happens to be this guy!!

Sadly he told me its costing him a lot of money to keep his on the road and was tempted with the idea of selling up. Apparently hes changed almost everything on the car. If the weather is better tomorrow I will pop over to BCP as they are literally 5mins away from here and check out his motor.

Phil a little heads up, he was going to try contact you..if and when he wants to advertise his motor for sale. I passed your mobile number on to him, hope you dont mind. I believe you followed him all the way back from Windsor, his name is Pete.
:dj:

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh.

















Never heard of him :mrgreen:
