Frozen out

Decided to move the Alpine and E-type around as I don't know how long it will take to sort the paintwork, so it might as well go into the bubble.

First problem was that the Alpine would not start - even after 2 hours of blow heater. Battery just too cold and might be too old too ?

So thought I'd bump start it with the SAAB.


Two problems. First the SAAB doors were frozen solid so had to defrost them. Then the bonnet was also frozen shut. Not had that one before.

So after an hour or trying it still did not start. I knew what I had to so but just did not want to do it. Took the plugs out and they were very wet, as I suspected. Clean and dried them and it started fine after that.


Then cars back into place.

Then Aero run to pick up a tree in the winter sun.

Oh and the garage phoned to say the E-type is being collected tomorrow morning...
