Title: Presentation
Post by: Nickel on October 23, 2008, 09:52:35 pm
So, this is where I'll be logging the happening with my two French darlings. I guess a short presentation is in order:

1998 Renault/Matra Espace 2.0 - The family car.
Bought last week, and I'll never sell it  ;D (we're actually talking about getting a second one, since we need too cars  :o )
So far I've fixed the central locking on the passenger side, left to do is to grease up the rear window wiper and try to get some use of the "leftovers" from the original radio (broken).

1965 Simca 1500 - The sports sedan ;D
Bought three (?) years ago, been parked since last year when I did an oil change and forgot to fit a gasket in the centrifugal oil cleaner :-[
But once I've cleaned out the garage of  prams and other needles crap I'm going to fit it with a new radiator, heater, electric fuel pump  AND a gasket for the oil cleaner  ;).

1980 Electronics engineer / father of three - Me
I'm a curious guy with a taste for technical things that dare to be different.

Well, that's all for now!

I would really like to see photos of both the cars, especially your Simca.
