Enjoying a Spot of Fresh Air

Finally we have got the Sierra up and running again. We promised ourselves this year that we would get her back on the road after a three year break in the garage. We pulled her our over the Christmas break to give her a wash and a check up but discovered one or two items that needed attention before we could get her out and take her for an MOT.

Now with old cars getting parts isn't always straight forward and we have several failed attempts at getting a coolant hose before finally finding the right one in Germany. With all of the toing and froing several months have now passed but finally she is now up and running again with fresh coolant and new hoses.

So last night she enjoyed a spot of fresh air sat on the driveway whilst Liam flushed through the coolant system, which judging by the amount of rust on the driveway this morning was due a clean out, and added fresh antifreeze and water.

It's nice to see her out of the garage. Now we are ready for the next step. When we get back from Wells next the Sea, the Sierra is to be taken to the bodyshop for a few minor bits of welding and then she will be heading for a new MOT.
