Bit early but well leave Holland early......comming up monday.

.

2nd attempd........after Classic Ford Show failure ( had to take our Supercharged V8 then...by tire rubbing issues)

3.0 Essex on tripples. Genuine Ford BBS 3 piece competition wheels. X-Pack + Suhe plastic.

Its on new tires now... Avon CR500 245/50/13's road legal competion tires. Hope they will last the trip. Bit scary in the wet. Did swap rim halves for better wheel et.

Did replace rear shocks for new very stiff ones.

Had to raise the suspension bumpstops on the rear also to be sure there is no tire rubbing on the rearwings with all the campstuff in the boot. Test drove it with 130 kg of concrete blocks in the boot.......

Did replace both front wheel bearings as I was in doubd..

Had an faulty valve cover gasked to replace as it was heavy leaking on the exhaust..

Think its ready now...it better be as I am getting a bit sick of its fighting against me.

.

Wil do an old OSF tour through Wales first : A4069 - Llynne Briane - Elan - Devils Bridge - hells Mouth - Snowdonia before we'd head up for Silverstone.

.

Fingers crossed everything goes well during the trip cause its a lot of miles to conquer.
