Nice one! Welcome back and love to see a nice P10 too. Looks a good one
Give the aerial plenty of wd40 over a period of weeks and then see if you can pull it out by hand (gently) if you can, clean it up and maybe oil it etc and you may be lucky. Depends if the motor has been burnt out though over the years then you may have to address that after you have dealt with the seizing. That's along the lines of what I did on my old P10 saloon back in the day anyway and got it working again from memory |

Awesome, thanks for the info man. It’s not the end of the world if it’s dead, just something quite cool about the old mechanical ariels isn’t there 😂 |

Ahh hey Quaily, glad to see you’re recently back as well and doing great! You’re correct about Chris although it’s Oz not NZ. He no longer works in motorsport but instead manages a fleet of commercially/off roady vehicles which his company leases out to aboriginal communities! He enjoys his work. This week he moved from Darwin in the north to Brisbane along the east coast as they finally got their full citizenship. I will be attending his wedding hopefully next year if the world sorts itself out! Nice to here from you man and welcome back too! I’ve seen a lovely dark blue GT on eBay. Get it snapped up!! |

Haha, nice to hear you stay in touch with him. I stayed in touch on Facebook when we stopped meeting at the Humber Bridge. I really want another GT.... you’ve no idea how much I miss the black one. Told my wife we shoulda left it on the driveway under a tarp, give it a few year and contact Fuzz and Tim lol 😂

Yes! Still best mates, hopefully always will be. I also went out to Oz to visit him a couple of years ago. Gave me the keys to his R32 GTR for the week whilst he was at work! Hindsight is a wonderful thing, key your eyes peeled. You’ll get another one man 👍 All the best |

Ahh no way, that’s awesome! Im from Hull, south cave area! Small world. Yeah don’t think it’s a carb just single point injection. Seems like my head gasket has gone though as there appears to be milky residue under the oil cap 😔 |
