get my 1969 MKII (Donald) his Blue and White back on the road!!!

It al start at HImley when I brought a set of 10" Dunlop D1 s for it thinking one day I'll sort it well it's given me a bit of motivation so yesterday I undovered him and tried starting him he will turn over but not fire due to the fuel pump not working  tried hitting it with a hammer nothing so going to order a new one while I'm doing that I'm goign to get the bitd I need to refrb the 7.5" Disc brake set up I brought years ago but never fitted my aim is to fit them before he goes back on the road (well as the GOlf has discs all round and Dumbo has Grooved discs and 4 pot calipers I don't think I will be abel to drive it with drums all round!!)

Driving with drums is easy. It's just stopping which is hard

well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways,

Ordered all the bits from Mini Spares just got to wait for a few bits to come n then I can collect them and hopefully get on with it.  Don't think I'll be in it for the LGT as I'm booked in in the Downton and the Downton is more suited to long trips

WOuld upload photo's if I could remeber how
