It was time to service the Morris Minor. New oil and grease, general checkup and Brakes cleaned and checked. I also found an exhaust leak from the manifold to pipe joint. After cleaning and refitting the clamp the leak was fixed.
A random selection of posts about travel and tinkering with mechanical machines. Mostly cars from 1937 to 1999, manufactured in English speaking parts of the world, but also kayaks and sewing machines. So here you can see how we travel, drive, paddle, break fix and find on a regular basis. On a desktop, you can choose your favourite item from the list on the right, choose a page from the menu or simply scroll down to see the latest.

Amrwr voorjaarsrit Bleiswijk
We had a beautiful day driving all the wat to Bleiswijk for the annual Amrwr spring run. This time we visited a magnificent Packard collection.
There was only one little glitch when our battery died completely. Luckily help form the ANWB arrived and the very capable patrolman installed a new battery. Lesson learnt: check your battery after the winter stop and keep a jumpstarter in the boot for long trips!
