Doesn't fix it back how it was but i certainly think you have found the route cause of your problem.

Which is a positive thing!

wow, lots of time money and effort going into this car... the result will surly be a great example.

Interesting car really... If only Mr T had gone for 2.5l option!

Glad you enjoyed it and what a great opportunity to show off a great car.

Just a thought... surely if the bolt is spinning freely then it must be leaking oil out?

Cleanest option may be to obtain a replacement sump, drill a hole in this one to let it drain then swap them over.

I vote this ^^^

no pic at the moment but can anyone guess who has 2 headlight cages that now "pop" up!

Looking really good. I bet your glad to get her back!

I've never really had the skills to get the rear bumper to fit nice, its mainly due to the profile of my repaired rear arches but after a lot of gaffing i finally decided to bond the bumper on and use the flexible bond to create the lines that i want. A couple of pics for the record. i did a little ...

well thats unique!
