Rover P4 & Corvette C4 in the workshop

These two cars came in last week, the Rover with a spongy brake pedal and fluid loss, the Corvette to have the rear wheel bearings replaced. The Rover was found to have brake fluid soaked front brake shoes, new cylinder seals have been ordered and the shoes sent away for re-lining. I was hoping to have them back by now but appears Parcelforce have mixed something up and they've not gone anywhere since being picked up. The Corvette came in with new hub assemnblies ready to fit but the axle seal that goes in the vertical link was not correct so another delay. New seals were sourced through RockAuto in the US, ordered Thursday, delivered Monday with all fees paid, that's what I call service. That meant I could get the job done today, fitted new rear brake pads as a matter of course and will be replacing the handbrake shoes when they turn up in a month or so.
