Excellent stuff :)

Hello. I have sent a PM but have had no reply. I have plenty of stories to share.

Sold!

Not touched the carb yet. Could be the fuel pump I suppose but you'd half expect it not to run very well once started.

Indeed it is :)

If only France...then one Jerry can. We have ran out of fuel in between petrol stations. It also reduces the stress of "are we going to make it" and ending up stopping earlier than needed in petrol stations. Recommended things to take: Gaffa tape, threaded rod and matching washers and nuts...

That would be me :) I have taken my 2A on a few trips. Firstly to Algeria in 2009, Morocco in 2010, Morocco and the Western Sahara in 2012 and China (via Russia, Kazakhstan and Monglia in 2014. www.rustyrhinos.com if you are interested. If you read overland books it might put you off taking a...

Thanks : - ) As for the GPS...it was from Chris at Pebbletrack - user Ryder on here : - )

Hmm. The idea of taking tests does not appeal to me at all. I am more the type to occasionally follow others on green lanes rather than map out routes of my own. If I had to take a test, I wouldn't bother and would stick to pay and play sites. If it's a public road/byway your license should...

I'd say if you like the car and have the money then go for it particularly if the chassis is good.

No idea what were were at in Mongolia! But now in Lincolnshire so I dare say fairly sea level :). air-mix....yeah...tried making it richer/leaner in various stages but makes no difference other than what you'd expect it to do. Alex

Seems to be a decent spark to me. No points :)

It's June 2014 and Red is back with the rebuilt engine and it's running spot on. I just need to set the valve clearances and do a few more miles in it before the trip. Red's bonnet has a habit of flapping about a bit on high speed (!) off road so fitted these: Had a few hours to patch up some...

Next was a case of tidying things up bolting things back together setting up timing and so on. And it appears to run like a gem - took it for a good run (fully loaded with all our rally gear) and pulls much better than the old engine - it has probably been on the way out for a while. Only a...

Thought I'd update this as not been posting much at all lately. Still have this as the expedition vehicle as well as the Series 2 and the RRC. I'll carry on from when I last posted...apologies if I have posted anything twice. Next is what can only be described as a gearbox nightmare. I...

Some progress on this over the months Reverse switch added: Bonnet taken apart (rivets drilled out, frame taken off, cleaned/repaired/painted and re-fitted not with rivets but with stainless bolts): First coat of paint put on with the roller. Not bad really. It will get one more coat...

Still for sale folks. Any sensible offers?

Fuel gauge stopped working. Fuse box very iffy so temporarily added an in-line fuse instead. Looked at useless springs again and annoyed that they lasted all of about 9 days.

Hello, My faithful 1963 S2A has a bit of a problem starting. When warm it's fine. When cold if I try to start it will turn over forever - most of the time it will not start but occasionally it will - but I don't think turning it over for 30-40 or more seconds is pleasant on the starter motor...
