First Outing!
Yes, the Marlin has been out and about.
As Vindicator are finishing it for me I got invited to one of their track gatherings at Curborough.
Problem 1 - The mondeo with it's shiny new tow bar has seized brakes so there'll be no towing it.
Solution ? Vindicator drove it there on trade plates!
Problem 2 - Fan belt fell off about 5 miles short of the track
Solution - Tow it behind the wifes focus!!!
Problem 3 - got fan belt back on but then the alternator pulley was loose (see other new thread!)
Solution - bloke at local scrapyard did it up as tight as possible.
And after that - took it gingerly round the track for a few laps each trying not to break anything and oh what fun!!! Forgot to take a camera so sorry no photos but I'm SO looking forward to this summer!!
