    Wanting to sell my series 2a, need some advice.....

    A part striped project Is only worth what people are willing to pay for it. To be Honist I wouldn't pay more than about £500 for something I can't drive away and striped down. You would be better off putting back together the front end and atleast people can see it complete

    Don't scrimp on the shoes though. Get the good quality ones. I got the ****part ones and with ****part adjusters and they are crap. Already on almost max adjustment so get genuine or atleast a good brand

    break problems please help!!

    break problems please help!!

    Are the shoe springs on the correct position ? They should be pulling shoe to back plate not shoe to shoe. That's what was wrong with mine once when I rebuilt it. Either that or are they adjusted up tight enough

    Pre 1960 Mot Dropped.

    To be Honist I see this as a bad thing Some people are gonna put some right old weeks back on the road that really shouldn't be there The mot is to make sure your vehicle is in a road worthy condition and therefore safe to be on the road

    Help needed

    Not really sure why you got a voltage regulater if you have an alternator Thought when you convert from dynamo you take that all out Striking a live wire to earth should only blow a fuse on a series cos there is nothing computerised to blow Like already been said start with the basics
