Well.....what a day of high and lows
The car started after a couple of turns, but the exhaust downpipe blew a little so took it off and Dale got his welder out again
Then, the engine would not start.....there was no spark
It transpired the dizzy had developed a problem whereby the points were not lying correctly due to some flexing in the plate beneath it. Some pressure placed on the right hand side of the points with a screwdriver would allow a spark
Changed the dizzy for a spare and all was well If anyone has a nice spare dizzy, please let me know
A couple of vids below off my camera: It sounds like a tractor in the vid, but its not as bad as that ! The rasp from the exhaust now the centre box is removed is a lot sweeter (P.S.....The plug leads have been tidied up now !)

The car went in for some body work to be done a couple of weeks ago so I called in today to see how it was getting along.......
