I have replaced my valance with one from Fitchetts (deemed to be as good as NOS) and that was a fight to fit. Back in the day, I could fit one of these inside an hour, this took the best part of a day with the apertures being wrong for the overriders. Not great...

I have my own supply of NOS Trico blades/inserts for my car. Although it seldom gets driven in the rain, they work fine.

More info from CT forum
Hi all. Further to Dales very kind help in posting the bad news. Here's a little more info.
1969 (EXC 36G) 13/60 Herald convertible (off white/red hood/full red interior) was stolen from Clapton east London on Thursday the 16th of oct. Between 12.30pm and 5.30pm. Car was covered and secured with a huge steering lock. It seems that it was lifted on to a lorry according to the police.
As Dale mentioned there were two distinguishing marks. The hood on the drivers side was cut and repaired (about 2x 3" long cuts). Also the passenger door has a large key scratch running the length. (Same night! Kids I think). Another characteristic was the front passenger side outer bumber droops slightly. (Sad face!). I also just gave in and fitted an alternator in the last two weeks. Has a Sony radio fitted under the glove box. The doors are fitted with the inner wood trim from the vitesse and the gear knob is a sports 6. Not my doing.
It also seems a red sunbeam was taken the same day same time very close by. Just didn't think the classic car fraternity would indulge in stolen vehicles but I suppose it takes all sorts.
Im absolutely gutted as you can imagine.
Keep your eyes peeled pls.
I'm trying to figure out how to post some photos of her. Will do ASAP. (Any advice helpful!)
Thank you for your attention.

Might be wrong oil in the gearbox. Did you use EP90 when topping it up?

I like picnics
Only if there is an award winning pork pie involved.

Colourwise, I'd go back to Alpine Mauve/Sebring White as it is a rare combination on a rare car. Enginewise, how about Coventry Climax?

Why oh why is everything we do here sub-standard? The old forum was user friendly but unreliable and slow, then we go for months and months with no forum then when we do get one it is incapable of doing what we want with the capacity for uploading full size photos easily without the need for opening third party accounts here there and everywhere. I'm sorry for sounding -/ve guys, but I'm done with this, all I want is a nice easy to use forum with a great bunch of guys and well you are a great bunch but this forum isn't great to use....
I give up.
