Re: AZL 1957
Never met an MOT man who didn't like owners who make an effort

Re: AZL 1957
Yeah great effort I was in the garage and was to swap the blue and the green places. The 57 got out and even started after it sat there since last september. Only fuel pump started leaking after 62 years. Then i was rolling back the blue 83 till a heard a scratching noise. The rear wing just clipped the door sill of the garage and now has an 40 cm scratch on it GGGRRRRRR. Than it wouldn't start and the battery charger wasn't in the garage either. Took the wheels of and got to some friends who have a tire changing machine. And they weren't at home of coarse... pfff I am going to have a beer. This afternoon i welded two hours on by bosses old volvo, so it will get through MOT too.

Re: AZL 1957
I arrived at the MOTstation with the blue at 14.30 and the man said i was the first to arrive for an controle today. He liked to see a 2cv, did the brake test put it on the lift and looked under it. It's great he said and it passed. It's to warm (36 degrees) to do more tests so he skipped the rest

Re: AZL 1957
Collected the car from a parking in the full sun. It was 58 degrees in the interior, difficult to handle the steering wheel...
