    fitted a new brake pipe of which the last one corroded and burst, all the other pipes look fine and new, whilst bleeding the brakes, once the brake pedel was touched the engine would make a different noise (I no they always do a little) and then smoke would come out the inlet manifold, but when the brake pedel was let of the noise and smoke stopped. somehow I think brake fluid is getting up into the inlet manifold, going to check the hydrovac, if that's ok what else could it be?, regards bill.

    Gave the jimmy a power wash, get all the moss and grease etc, gave her a little drive around the yard, engine is very very sweet! She's had a new clutch fitted by previous owner, soon to start restoration! Bill.

    Looking in a old cmv and noticed a bolster truck of what looked like 9.20's tyers (could be wrong) they looked nice and wide?. I I would like to put mine back to bargrips but don't really like the 7-50's as they look really skinny!.

    We packed up Sunday about 5 in the morning, only as are lorrys was booked to leave at 9, but I'm glad we left then as it was a bugger to get out that early let alone the photos I sore of how manic it was to leave later, plus we had done 10 days and felt exhausted.
