Wiper motor stopped working and I was expecting a easy fix..sadly wasn't the case.
luckily I had a spare but it was a bit of a faff getting it fitted.

Dualling with those Lancias at Goodwood again! To say it was wet would be an understatement and 7 15 minute sessions of full speed wipers killed my wiper linkage and wore out my rear near side brake pads.

When did you last see a Lancia Prisma in your mirrors?

That looks an excellent fun track day. Did you organise it through a club ?

It was the Lancia Motor Club track day which is an annual event. The Duke of Richmond's father was a founding member of the club, so they get a full weekend day to themselves, which is unusual. My other MG is a Lancia, but since it had just come back from a 6 month body rebuild, a track day didn't seem the ideal first outing....

The Lancia Beta coupe is a handsome car, especially it that dark blue, probably the best colour. 
The was a Lancia Beta Zagarto spider at auction here in Oz recently….. was tempted

That's a beautiful car.
I  had to be in Bridgnorth on Sunday for my grandsons cricket, we had a walk into the town during the break and stumbled across the Italian Moto Club's annual jamboree.
Were you there?

Nothing much on my TF this week but I have got a bit more done with the transplant of an MGF EPAS steering setup into my MGB project car.  In order to fit, the front part of the column needs to be shortened. So far everyone who has done this appears to have lost the use of the steering lock. Ive managed to restore the lock function by carving out a slot in a splined tube. This doesnt affect the strength of the inner shaft and the assembly is still free to compress in the event of an impact as per the original design.  I just now need to sort the position of the MGF / TF stalks and column shroud and then bolt it up for good and plug in the converter loom ive made which nowcincludes an intermittent wiper module thanks to the suggestion of one of our forum members.

Nota, this is a work of significance.
I have heard of a few using Astra (or is it Nova) EPAS but not F/TF.
Might be of value to post on the B section in one of the OCs.
Certinaly will attract attention as muscular strength in B owners will not improve.
