Mabel’s stay of execution

one more chance.... 

I once had an GT6 that did not like me, 2diffs, 3 gearboxes and finally broke down in France with a seized diff at the top of a French mountain. Sold it as soon as it got it home.. we just did not get on!

After much deliberation I’ve decided to give Mabel one more stay of execution, I’ve decided to get her engine rebuilt over the spring/summer, 

she’d better behave after this biggie 

Good decision 👏

Thanks Bruce 

will be stripping the engine down in a couple of weeks time , getting Mike Papworth to overhaul the diff as well, and fitting new front trunnions.  
hopefully that’s all the drivetrain sorted 🙄
