Re: Mk1 Pi Restoration
Been burning off the Christmas indulgences with a bit more progress in the engine bay. All tuned up brake and clutch fluids bled it's all done under there. Not much more to do now just fitting the interior and waiting for the chrome to come back from the platers. Thanks for the comments Charles catch up soon.

The To Do List is down to an A4 sheet of 15 minute jobs! maybe!
Thanks for the comments John and thanks and for having a search for the Furflex, hard to believe it shrinks like 3 inches but I've managed to find some new.

Re: Mk1 Pi Restoration
Waiting for the chrome thought I'd pick up an old slow burning project, there was an old thread on here but the photographs seem to have a glitch so ill just add it here to finish it up. I threw an old metering unit on it I only had half the required new seals so there was a seal leaking.
The chrome has now arrived so we are back on it.
