Hello one and all
Met Julian for the first time this week. Had the pleasure of his hospitality
and some work on my car. I've been on the list for a couple of years now and
never had the chance to meet as I've missed the Salisbury events so far.
Anyway, nice to met at last and get some first hand knowledge. I was royally
looked after by Julian and his wife and entertained by three gorgeous
daughters and three bonkers dogs. Fab.
One thing we noticed when al the wheels were off... The handbrake shoes have
been binding a little and with the car on stands it was the perfect time to
adjust the handbrake. Mine is a jap import, about '93 allegedly, and unlike
UK spec cars, there was no grommet-covered hole on the protective housing to
poke a screwdriver through to rotate the little ratchet that then moves the
pads one way or the other. Looks like I've beaten Julian to it but we both
wondered if anyone else had come across this with an import.
