Good Afternoon, my name is Paul Finney, 66, retired welder, I have 5 Mk3 Ford Capris and have just bought a FMW Matey from a neighbour who got it out of a barn in Norfolk. Been stood for quite a while so was not running. Sorted the engine out, 1600 crossflow, plugs, points, filter and oil. Tuned him over and he fired straight away. Into first and the nearside wheel drives beautifully, offside wheel is solid. Up in the air, hit various things, disconnected both handbrake cables, took the back cover off!!!!! Put it back on again very quickly. Don't know what I did but the offside wheel now turns grudgingly, I can go forward slowly, but not reverse. The idea is to get him road legal and potter round the village, offer him to the local Sea Cadets for parades and such. Paul.
