Time will tell I guess but also used a lot of bresco clips

Ps.....for the air vent holes I made wooden templates and screwed into same holes as for the plastic vents....for the indents where the big screws to bulkhead go, I used strong plastic clothes pegs to hold the material in place whilst it dried

Material was sourced from Amazon....search for “surePromise faux leather fabric vinyl leatherette”......you can get smooth or grained.... essentially, after cutting out the old crappy foam, I filled with expanding foam, smoothed off, painted all over in several coats of PVA, the clamped to...

Yes I see that...but £200 for a 250ml bottle!......RScomponents charge £46 for 50ml and they seem the only people who sell 50ml. Amazon has some much cheaper at about £12 but the bottles are covered in Chinese writing...so is it a cheap copy ? If it has to be RSComponents then so be it....but is...

Hi all, Rebuilding my old suffix A Lt76 gearbox. It seems I need Loctite601 bearing retainer. It also seems very difficult to get hold of. Anyone any ideas where I might find some and/or is there an alternative Loctite? Or another manufacturer? thanks to all in advance....

Thanks all for the responses..... I am thinking along lines of either electronic ign or 45d so will see where it goes over next couple of weeks Ta

Hi all, Getting on with my 72’ 2.25 petrol rebuild......fresh rebuilt engine went into chassis last week..... now I’m turning to the dizzy.....but am slightly confused (or maybe not?) Early S3 had Lucas 25D dizzy. Mine is certainly a 25D but the stamped serial no is “41269 F” On further...
