DIRTY

DIRTY

DIRTY

And a load of rust.

As this comes apart bit by bit it seems a lot of this is original 70’s Cortina.

First stop was this one.

I did not realise for a while that I cound unbolt the other end.

Inappropriate tools abound.

Then the arms and their bushes that seem bushed.

A ton of cleaning up followed.

Wire brushed all parts.

Less and less to it.

Why a split pin, Nyloc and bolt retainer?

Bushes go there.

How the hell?

Anti Roll Bar gets new bushes both ends

So thats where we got last night. Still so much more to do.

I am also replacing all Nylocs and bolts as I go along.

Later team.
