Guzzi Rat

Latest repairs for last WOF. New set of tyres. New tie rod ends. New steering boots. Shimmed rack and pinion to take the slack out of the steering. Wheel alignment. Also replaced the fuel pump last year due to it leaking, (aftermarket external). Still humming along (sorry team, not much for threads on the interweb) Cheers Charlie.

New seatbelts for the Viva. Made in the states and imported by Normanby Upholstery. Great to deal with and you can match colour and type that you need and have them made to order, all with the correct safety standard required for WOF requirements. No hassels.

Pinch weld or weather seal been replaced, not the cloth type but with a period matching new one for a Torana. A little more pink than expected but should fade well to match.

My first bit of fettling with the HB. Hopefully the colour will age with a bit of sunlight and settle to better match the rest of the interior. Anyone pick the change straight off?

Yes I will continue the thread with w
