My mistake - Supplying dealer was in Cornwall (P***** (cant remember) but first services were at Kings.
The replacement car made it and back without hitch :D

Tony, more than welcome.
Manney youre correct its been down that way all its life....was supplied by Kings of Taunton. I bought it from Backwell, North Somerset.

This is the new one. As you can see its in nice original...
All isnt lost......the car will be sorted for the summer.....
Ive just got back from collecting num 0317 - a completely standard, unmolested, well cared for Williams from a 50+ owner......so thats the new german excursion wagon.......
Paul
Yeah we actually managed to get it idling/running perfectly.....Idling was lumpy, but perfectly usable at 900 rpm. Revs rose and fell nicely....then this f***** pulley broke and that was that.........
Im going to look at a replacement car tonight, then I will decide what to do with this...
Bad news Im afraid.
One of the Kent Cams vernier pullies broke this morning, bending 8 inlet valves........the engine had run less than an hour......
Paul
Cheers people.
Been quite a slog actually this car - wasnt looked after at all well in its previous owners hands.....
Im fairly confident now it will be ready for Sat!
Paul
I dont know......left it all too late as usual, gonna be some late nights this week.......
