Tidy

Great pictures.

Looks like you're on it there. Shows the Coupe off in a good light too.

Has your starter arrived yet?

Thanks HiraetheHuw and Joe.
The first run was to get a "feel" of the hill, before pushing it as bit harder next time.
Sadly with the starter motor issue curtailed the next run!

The new starter has arrived, so just waiting to get it fitted.

It took awhile, but I have finally been able to track down why my starter motor would not work and why the rev counter was going erratic.
The earthing battery strap attached to the car had broken away!
All fixed and running again now.

Anybody interested in a brand new Hella starter motor, drop me a pm?

Hooray! Back on the road!

Is there any damage to the engine wiring loom?

I ask because when the earth strap on a British Mini broke the choke and heater cables used to melt as they did the earthing.

Well hopefully not, but I'll watch out for any signs!
