Ok, the KJA has been sat a while now but........

Due to some time constraints (working all weekend again) I don't think I'll have my Samurai body swapped in time for Billing so the new plan, more expensive but quicker, is to get the KJA on the road.

List to do:-
Order a set of tyres when I get home (215s, nothing too aggressive)
Fit the weber carb
Sort electrical gremlins (lights are iffy)
Tax, test, insure,

TAKE IT TO BILLING!!!!!!!!!

(hopefully)

I thought that too, something a little different / rarer.

I was thinking the same, then I realised it's only 3 weeks. Push comes to shove I'll be putting the 33s back onto the Samurai and running that down.

It'll be fine.

Oil, air and fuel filters ordered, spark plugs too. I'll get a gallon of oil from my local motor factors.

Gonna be booking an MOT on Monday.
