After a light mechanical restoration taking several months, we finally get our Sunbeam Talbot 90 out for its first run.

After being left outside for nearly twenty years and with only a new coil, plugs and some fresh juice we see if she will start...

After a careful bit of manoeuvring Tynny finally escapes the garden and moves to the security of the newly cleared garage. Next job give her some brakes back ready for the big move

The next job after getting her running was to make sure we have a cooling system, so that when 'THE BIG MOVE' happens we don't cook the engine. I am pleased to report after a good good deal of fettling we have a good working cooling system.

After a little run, we have success so best turn her off before she gets to hot! A well deserved 'thumbs up' I think.
