Jon is currently carrying out the pre delivery inspection on our 1958 Austin Healey 100-6.

He has secured both front seat bases as the bolts were missing in the frames. Tighten and test and all ok.

He has drained approximately 3 litres of coolant and replenish with anti freeze.

He has slackened the handbrake cable and removed the clevis pin from linkage. He has adjusted the cable end and re-attached, fitted new clevis pin and split pin.

Attend to both door check straps.

Tighten hinge pin and nuts and fit new clevis pins to strap with washer and new split pins.

Trace dash illumination as we have found that it is not working, king to switch under dash. All working now.

Just needs fuel gauge, washers and road test to finish.
