Re: Jas,s 1200s
Took the beast to the panel beaters last week for some time on the chasis plant, and as I suspected the front was out by approx 10mm, its also having some rust cut out from the strut towers, left rear gard and gutter (roof channel).
Decided to tow it, was a bit of a laugh as first time rolling in 12 years, but was a good chance to check breaks and wheel clearance ......all good. I live on a hill so a good push with me steering got it to the bottom. Heres some pics..........
