Mabel’s Maiden voyage !


Darren Sharp

Recommended Posts

Not the first time she’s been out in 2022 but a confidence building 12 miles around Cannock Chase . Up and down the hills … Electronic distributor and new leads fitted prior to Christmas performed faultlessly. No untoward noises from the rebuilt gearbox (apart from the un-synchromesh ones of course ) . She is really tight for a Herald with very few squeaks and rattles . The Delaney Galley heater valve has freed off after a long soak in WD 40 so we even had heat! Next job is to fit the new old stock Boomerang mirrors that Wendy found on line . Lots of admirers waving and smiling .
