I received a phone call the night before from good friend Dave Maton saying that he was coming to Shoeburyness on Sunday morning to collect a fuel tank for his Morris Minor. he knew that I'd got myself into a situation of having an immobile car in front of the garage and a mobile one trapped in the garage, so would I like a hand to 'shunt cars around?'. What a top bloke! So I gratefully took him up on his offer.
So, Sunday morning, I filled the differential with oil and bled the clutch master cylinder while waiting for Dave to arrive.
Once Dave arrived we got stuck in and pushed the Green Cortina onto the drive and I reversed the Zetec Cortina out of the garage. Temptation got the better of us both and we couldn't resist taking the Zetec round the block the couples of time to 'get the oil in the diff circulated'.
After having a bit of fun, we pushed the Green Cortina into the garage where I could resume my latest challenge with it at another time and Dave set out on his journey home. (He had other stuff to do) He certainly done me a favour though, so it was a very worthwhile morning, plus it's always good to see your friends!
