Hehe.......Not under it's own steam, of course!.......Got a it towed by mt mate in his Sprinter van, that was an experience let me tell you!.......Jeez, never again.
Felt quite funny really.....the car actually moving, on a road..........
I put some new clocks on it while it's been stood gathering dust.
The barsteward who sold it me told me the speedo didn't work but said that the wire hanging loose by the driveshaft simply had to be connected and it would work........and like a prat, I believed him!.........No worries I thought, just connect said wire when the new engine goes in.......so I was quite shocked when the damn thing worked while it was on tow.........so what could this rougue wire be?......electronic milometer?, god knows, no doubt find out next week when t' new enjun is in.
Looking forward to a non Sprinter van assisted drive in it now....I wonder how long it will be before it blows up again?....not long knowing my luck, we shall see.
Will put some pictures up when it's done......maybe I can learn to love it after the terrible start to my ownership..............still wary of it though:dearme:
