As ever i am unsure if i have an original or later part on my 85 one ten ..i have searched a few threads and utube videos but just thought i would ask about removing the seal before i take my 3lb hammer and chisel to it. I have the axle off to do the rear chassis and thought i would sort out its...

I removed the seats and seat box yesterday as its a saab 93 leather job and was just bolted to the box with 4 6mm bolts so i didn't think that would impress the mot man in the future so am working on a more robust attachment to the chassis. Whilst i was there i noted that the battery had no live...

My vehicle was bought without an engine and exhaust in place so am a little short of reference points. Thanks as ever.

Hi just changed the clutch on a 300tdi and am getting ready to fit the engine into my 110 with a lt77 box installed.
