Jim's MkIII 2000E Estate

Day 5. Stripped off the decaying vinyl roof and it doesn't look too bad under there. One area of concern over the drivers door.

Verified that the clutch is indeed seized. Will have to wait until I've fitted some brakes before I try jolting it free.

 

Removed the squealing alternator belt and ordered a new one.

 

Then some bad news I think. Does this axle look bent?

I've never heard of an axle bending but then I only play at Cortinas. I'm sure someone will confirm soon. Could it be collapsed bushes or springs making it appear bent? :headscratch:

 

Its not an impossible dream of getting her being back on the road. Cheers Mac. :thumbup:
