This is something I had wanted to do for a while, but only got around to it now. An on-car string rig.

Immediately after the first drive, in typical fashion, it was time to pull the car to bits again.
After a little more work to get it ready, it was time for Nuggie to venture out of the garage and onto the road, for the first time since at least 2012.
Of course the clutch pedal assembly had been bodged by a previous owner. Why wouldn’t it have been?
One of the big hold-ups with the Alto was that the fuel tank was… less than ideal.
I left off the last instalment with a head on the block, but no oil pump, so I couldn’t finish the assembly.
I haven’t posted much recently, but things have been happening in the background, namely a slow but steady engine rebuild.
Since I’m still waiting on the block to return from machining (again), I moved on to fixing some other small issues.
Not to forget the rear of the car, I moved on to replacing the shocks there, too.
Following on from making the calipers all nice and shiny, the rest of the front suspension needed to be refreshed to bring it up to the same standard.
