Re: Diagnosis...

I've got one of N.G. Triumph's special heat shields (covers more of the manifold than the standard factory type unit) which I was going to fit to my Spitfire. I think it might be pressed into service on the Dolomite seeing as I'm getting horrendous fuel evaporation when sitting in traffic. Is there ...

SU carbs Dolly 1500 (oh and dizzy too)

Here's the story; needles and jets are badly worn, discs are leaking causing very high idling, linkages etc an unkown quantity. So...rebuild or replace? As I use the car every day, I'm leaning towards the replace option, as that will mean the car is out of action for the shortest time. The snag is ...

Re: Another two classified as merely 'other cars'

The "82" Dolly is actually an early spec Dolly 1300, which has the bigger steering wheel and the vinyl seats. I suppose it must have been re-registered, but in <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>theory</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> it could have sat around unregistered for 5 years...

Re: treating rust

There are a few products available which all claim to treat rust and prepare the area ready for painting. Kurust is one than springs to mind, but I can't think of the names of any others. I seem to recall that Practical Classics did a test on some of these some time ago (erm, a long time ago ...

I'd like to thank Al, Justyn and Ken for doing the concours judging, I think ...

Re: Sprint in sutton -sorned for 6 yrs but doesn't look too

If members feel that an "Ebay Hall of Shame" is required on here to name Ebayers who regularly break otherwise restorable cars, I'll happily provide one. Of course the named users will have the right to reply and to tell us why they believe it's a good thing to buy up cars and break them for profit ...
