Following on from my hello thread about saving a Viva from the srap man I thought I would fill you in on my progress so far. This is not going to be a resto project my aim is to make the Viva reliable and use it
So far I have cleaned and adjusted the brakes, replaced the brake hoses and renewed the brake fluid.
I have replaced the top and bottom radiator hoses and renewed the anti freeze
I have also replaced the breather hose but noticed pipe that is attached to the plate under the carb is broken so that will need replacing at the moment I have just blocked the hole up
I have also noticed that the fuel line has been replaced and brake pipe has been used!!!!!. I have some 8mm fuel line to replace it.
This is the damaged I caused trying to knock a dent out
DOH!!!
My lodger has been cleaning the interior while I did the brakes
Seems to be coming up ok
Thats it for now
