Re: Stanford Hall Club Display Sunday 5 May
I'll be going in my C, is there any passes left?
I'll send an SAE ASAP if so.
Cheers,
James.

Re: Project 25
You probably know, but you can get repro Torq Thrusts now from Group 4 in Porsche fitment Graham if you fancy a similar vibe on the hot rod.
Would look excellent in my opinion.

Re: Help please with virtually non running C
Well happily, but slightly embarrassingly I seemed to have sorted it. Despite remembering changing it in the early stages of the car running rough (dropped by a mates air cooled resto /repair business at the time, and he recalls us swapping it too) it looks like it was a sodding condenser all along....

Re: Help please with virtually non running C
Forgot to mention, yes, all four accelerator jets were squirting nicely on last run up. Car was run fairly regularly during the summer, so fuel not old. Dizzy lend will eliminate any points issue if Paul will lend me his for an evening. So it's main or idles I guess. When carbs were in bits I could ...

Re: Help please with virtually non running C
Well it's not fuel delivery, tried the electric pump, plenty of flow! One last try at ignition before I take the carbs apart again, and search for a horse to pull some hair off - going to borrow a dizzy from a mate to eliminate in one hit any niggles (points, arm, cap, advance) that may be lurking t...

Re: Help please with virtually non running C
Needle valves at the top? they seemed OK. I'll clean those points surfaces. Tank, yes have run compressed air through the line, all fine. Tank not the original, was brand new 6 years ago. Electric pump was something I was thinking about anyway as those carbs certainly do need a bit of turning over t...

Help please with virtually non running C
So, I'll try to remember the correct order all this happened in, and all the many things I've tried, hopefully won't leave any vital bits out. Bottom line is the car will start, idle but won't properly rev, or drive. Any load at all, it coughs and gives up, then takes a while before it will start ag...

Re: Valuation of RHD 1959 356A help needed
I won't bother guessing, more expert people will be along to do that soon I'm sure.
I think the value may well depend on the extent of the rot, and repairs needed so maybe more images of that?
But I'd like to register interest please!

Re: Hoop Chop exhaust fitmant
Anything in particular you recall was difficult?
I've seen one on a car at Bicester last year, had a chat, he was happy, but don't recall his name.

Hoop Chop exhaust fitmant
I've done a hoop chop to raise the gearbox, about 25mm, and need to run a non standard exhaust now the engine seems too high for the stock one. Does anyone here have any experience with this issue and can say which work and which don't? The Sebring style looks like it would for sure, but I've got my...

Re: Leitz Luggage Rack doesn’t fit
Pretty sure my rack is an original, and definitely had to do some grill wiggling with the fixings loosened up, and a little bending to make it go back on after the car was apart for painting. Sorry to have no magic solution, but that's how I did it, and as Ashley says, it doesn't really show with th...
