lancia prisma

Thursday was a bit of a low point sold the prisma, in thoery I had 4 lancias that drove. The fulvia, prisma, beta and monte.. So I sold the prisma which should leave me with 3. No actually It leaves me with the fulvia if a jump start it and swop the batteries with the montecarlo who is now in pieces after some late night illegal racing action. The beta, is as tempramental as one of Ronnies girlfriends and since my dad blow up the battery with the angle grinder it struggles to start.
Its my birthday though so Im happy and alot older.
As promised before leaving for Europe, I have taken my prisma engine back out. Well it has been two years since the whole engine came out. Probably a year since the last clutch change. Thanks to Ronnie who gave me a hand on Saturday to get the engine out. We are getting pretty good started late and still had time to fit the headlining into his Opel before supper.


Spent today (Sunday) cleaning everything trying to spot the oil leak! This time Im going to do as much as possible. New engine mounts, fix heater, new hoses, new belts, new oil seals. Ow and strip and rebuild the gearbox. Hoping to get it back in next weekend, if Im very lucky and can strip the gearbox, get it welded and put it back together all in 5 days Ill be very impressed. hell if I get it back together again Ill be impressed.
