Yesterday was my Berlinetta's Mot time again. Full pass, no advisories and the emissions up to modern standards (although the tester said I only needed a smoke test). I like a full test to see how the engine tune is behaving.
He found a tiny nutation from the rear brake drums although the official brake test was excellent. The drums may have gone very slightly oval but the tester said he wasn't bothered about such a tiny wobble. I have an unused full set of original Ford drums still in the original wax paper and cardboard containers. I'll fit them when I get a moment. I hope I don't find that they are out of shape too!
Not bad for a 31 Year old kit with 55000 miles on the clock.
