So turned out I had a bit more free time than I was expecting? So I spent a little time self-isolating in the garage (been doing it for years!?)
So now I have a new clutch and cable, feels much...
Thanks for the replies.
Yup, my clutch is very heavy, it's horrible! I have to get my left toe all the way down on the clutch to get a smooth gearchange so driving it like I stole it isn't so...
Hi all, the clutch cable has snapped on my Williams 2. I previously replaced it a few years ago with a Pagid one from Euro Car parts which lasted no time before the plastic widget that connects the...

I have a...

I'm really enjoying driving Billy...

All in all, a pretty good find, I'm currently working on mechanical bits to get it running again; usual stuff; timing belt,...
