Lol, funny image

With the dreaded MOT fast approaching and very much expecting a big fail, yesterday I took the 2CV out for its longest drive this year. I headed down the M5, M50, and A40 to Monmouth. At Monmouth, I turned off the A40 and headed down the Wye Valley, through Tintern with its famous abbey, and ended up in Chepstow for lunch. From there I crossed the original Severn Bridge (M48) and immediately exited at j1 (Aust) and hit the B4461 to Alveston. From there I joined the A38 north to just east of Frampton-on-Severn and onto the M5 at j13 and back home to Worcester. A total distance of 130 miles (210kms).

wow,
it sounds so familiar, but I have to look it up on google maps to remember it all again .
It´s been more than 45 years I was there .
Lived in Hagley then and went for a day out to so many places in that and other regions .
Worked for Blakedown Landscapes then.
I loved the days out in my Morris MK III, if i did not strand up somewhere with some car failure .
The regional AA people knew me after some time and we had a lot of teas a laughs .
Sadly it never comes back again.

Had to take a trip down to the New Forest. Only about an hour and a half from me. Glorious sunshine, roof down, car purred like a kitten. Happy car day.

Stuck stickers on my rusty bits! They're neautralised as well as possible with good Bilt Hamber stuff. And covered with POR15. The ledge in particular, had a split because of rust and water was flowing into the boot a little over winter. duct tape over that bit, followed by lots of stickers! I really like the look actually, I think I'll do some more. I sprayed a bit of lacquer over them to kind of blend them together and make them last longer.

I wish I had the money to get new metal welded in, but alas no.

Excellent!

Another nice day pottering. Stuck a lot more stickers on! Fixed a bad earth on a rear light making it so odd things after I refitted them.
Drove around looking for petrol but there was none. Lol, thank goodness for my reserve jerry can. I'm off to Devon in the car tomorrow.

MOT time! Easy pass as usual, emissions great. Happy days.

Hey Ian .... my heating is smelly with exhaust when I give it some welly
