Hello all,
Saturday i attended my first lbc event, the TRiangle British Car Show in just
outside of Raleigh, NC. Nice to finaly be able to compare what my car has with
others. Picked up a Parish hard top fpr $40 US. The vinyl was in poor shape and
the window glass has some dammage, but it has cleaned up real well. I have
removed the cracked vinyl and adhesive and am ready to paint. I am currently
planing to use a gel coat for fiberglass boats. Any opinions or suggestions?
On the way home from the meet, I heard a slight whining/squeaking sound from
the front left wheel area. It occured while crusing in the 30-40mph range,
above that the road noise was too much to tell. Also, some vibration up front
on hard braking (rotors?) Engine gets realy loud above 50mph so cant tell above
that, so took it easy comming home. Nothing upon accel./decel. This morning, I
went to move the car so my wife could get in the driveway. There is a noise
comming from the brake pedal. Sounds like air pushing through something
(thought it was the fan first) goes away when I push on the pedal comes back
when I let off of it. Anyone experience this?
Hope to have a page up on the progress of the car soon.
Erich -80 B daily driver.
