Just been given a slightly scruffy '88 Mayfair by a mate who just couldn't be bothered to finish it.

I plan to breath a little life back into this car but know little at present so I'll apologise in advance
for asking lots of much repeated questions...

To kick off:
As it's an '88 - how do I tell if it's set up to run on unleaded ?
Does anyone know of a decent mobile mechanic in Birmingham who could give
it a "once over" ?

Thanks
Tony

Hi,

I'm in Bearwood. By the Tesco Metro on the Hagley Rd.
So if you fancy a quick sprint up the 4040 I'll have the kettle on !

Dogfather, I would be very grateful if you could spare the time to cast an expert eye over
the Mayfair and give any opinions on where I should start (and why it won't).
Give me a call - 07958 493 764 and I'll break out the chocolate biscuits !

Best wishes
Tony
