Hi Steve,

I know how hard you have worked for this day, a lot of people would have given up, well done and to get a pre 1972 age related plate is a well earned Christmas bonus. We all look forward to seeing the Olympic been driven to events next year. (please bring it to the AGM). The Olympic is now in the Olympic database under its new registration number.

Regards
Tony

Rod ,

maybe i was a little over excited when i said i was just waiting for the summer before i hit the road ? . I have a few problems to sort out before i go for a run. The coolant system needs sorting , bought a second Olympic Radiator off eBay but it was a Rochdale Olympic phase 1 and it too big. The alternators knocking on the steering column when the car starts so that will need some adjustment and i still have not sorted the door tops out . The interior needs finishing and whats been done needs upgrading . The car is MOT but only the essentials were done to get it through the test .Nothing really exciting to photograph that's new but i will take some photos and post them.

Thanks Rod

Tony

Thanks for the positive comments and if i can get the above sorted i will come down to the meet .

I have just one bit of research i need to finish?. The wolseley register looked at photgraphs of the car and said that it look like the parts used are off the same car? or same period. I am hoping that the are off the same car because i have requested the history off the car using the engine/heritage certificate and eventually locating the origanal registration number which will hopefully lead me to the owner prior/present ,when the car was broken and used for the Rochdale Olympic ?.

Thanks

Steve
