Re: Re: 1955 Traction 11B “Barn Find” Project

Been for a few drives today – the brakes work well but pulled to the right so keep coming back to fine tune them. Still pulling a little but they are fine.

I have booked it in for its Controle Technique tomorrow morning at 09:00 so I have been busy getting it all ready. Set up the lights last night as per the book.

Then fitted a resistor to the LED for the alternator field current (charge light) – this worked perfectly.

Got the polisher out and started to polish up the bonnet and the roof. Lots of bare metal and bubbling paint but it makes it look a little better. Where there is good paint, it comes up like a mirror – will get on with this next year when it goes properly into paint. But for now – we will drive and enjoy 😀
