No sooner had the car arrived with the new owner were we back on the road going to collect it. As with all classic cars there are often trials and tribulations that have to be overcome. Things that go un-noticed or issues that develop when you least expect them.

The customer had reported that the sunroof was rubbing slightly when it was being opened so Steve removed the panel, adjusted and refitted. It now works perfectly and the rubbing has stopped.

We were also told of a slight rubbing/catching sound coming from underneath so some further investigation was required. The exhaust down pipe flange that had been welded in the wrong position and was hanging down too low could be the culprit. We have replaced the down pipe with the flange swivelled up for more clearance.

Fitted new front discs, pads and hose to cure to cure brake imbalance.

Having tested the car none of the reported problems are present so the car is good to return home.
