Evening all. I've put an ad in the wanted section for a clutch pedal. The one in my GTX has been butchered by a previous owner to accommodate those alloy pedal doofers from Sparco. I want rubber pads back on so need a pedal that the rubber will go on. I can't get a new one unless someone says the ...

A road trip is always possible, I need contacts ...

Well....it's arrived!! Was starting to get dark but first impressions are good!! A few dents but no obvious signs of rot. Clutch feels grotty but that's not worrying me. Other than that...a thorough check over and I reckon she's very much usable as she is..

Hi Mark, The car has been used very little in the last five years. It was MOT'd up until last November and will be coming to me with a new MOT.
