Another fine afternoon

When I returned home last Wednesday I knew I had to take the DHC out for one final trip. To the car wash to get rid of the salt from the previous trip, and after that to the fuel station to top up the tank. After that the car could be put away in the shed for the 3 month winter hibernation. But not before one final short trip through the area. And a good excuse to bore everyone with some more autumn pictures of the DHC 😝

Washing away grid salt and mud collected over the last few days!

And I managed to add a few more jobs to the To-Do-List;

• The seat belt on the driver’s side doesn’t roll back up as it should;
• The speedo meter is getting very agitated at low speeds, with the needle bouncing wildly between 0 and 180 km/h!
• The clock has now stopped working completely;
• And finally while getting into the car at the carwash, I managed to rip of the driver’s side windscreen corner finisher;

But for the time being she’s tucked away in the shed, alongside the ’76 FHC. And as it looks now, she will stay there for the next three or four months …
