Yesterday was a good day.

John was in fine form and very inspirational as ever.  We started by separating the gearbox & overdrive and then took the later to bits.

From start to finish it was a good day.  The overdrive is in good order and only needs a clean out of the built up sludge.  The gearbox was also surprisingly good which is great because a new set of gears is the best part of £6000 and that would have really derailed the project.  We looked at the steering box and idler and both of those were good as well.  Finally John found a new, and straight lever for my brake master cylinder.

All in all a very good day.  I have a rebuilt engine, good gearbox, overdrive and steering box.  Perfect, all I need to do now is put them back together and stick them in the car.
