Finally collected the car and drove it 100 miles home, pleasantly surprised, other than surface rust where the door sill plates are not too bad, handbrake works well, engine sounds sweet, noisy clutch bearing, ignition switch does not spring back to disengage starter when engine fires up, seats shot to bits. Now for the stupid questions as promised, can I fit rover 75 seats into it? anyone tried? also dont like just an oil pressure light, what adapter do I need, ie what thread is the original sender for oil and water temp? The exhaust is blowing, I notice the tail pipe exits behind the nearside rear wheel, is this right? Heater blower motor doesnt work, need to check it out looks like a new rad and water pump, water temp stays about 40% up on gauge. All in all quite chuffed with my new car, heres hoping.
Thanks in advance
