[Super flex spring eye bushes]

A little heat helps too

[Am I missing something? Herald calipers on eBay...]

Next to the bleed nipple they have a Ford logo

Bottom of the drivers door, and the shut gaps look a bit skewiff as well

Thanks for the PM.... will respond tonight when I have more time!

Pete, It's free if you live in the UK... I guess the catalogue is too big and heavy to send to a remote island in the middle of Scandinavia for free. But I could probably not afford to buy anything anyway. Everything happens for the best...

 

They do Have a PDF Version

We had a few hours in Marienheim when we went on the Helsinki/Stockholm ferry, very nice place to visit and I plan on going back in the future.

If I remember correctly the Islands are not part of the EU?

[Unusual Spitfire Mk3 for sale - anyone know this car?]

Sold for £6200 plus comissions

[Aluminium bodied GT4]

I will.... tho its still in the embryonic stage

I Have been discussing this with a rotary specialist and we are looking at the possibility of fitting the engine in from an early RX-7FB mated to the 6 speed box from an RX8

A ported 12A rotary on old school webers should sound awesome and very period

[Aluminium bodied GT4]

That sounds fair enough.... I'm certain if I had put that much work in I'd be reluctant as well!

I will however make some enquiries into the digital scanning of the bonnet tho as I would like that style bonnet on Project Rotisserie

 

I had been considering doing one of these:-

[Unusual Spitfire Mk3 for sale - anyone know this car?]

"which leads the vendor and other Triumph enthusiasts to believe that the car could be a prototype. All of the running gear and engine are standard Spitfire MkIII as is the interior. The vendor has been in contact with Jigsaw Triumph Specialists and the TSSC who believe that the Triumph is something different and further investigation is needed to verify the car's status"

 

Excellent cop-out there!

[Aluminium bodied GT4]

I have just spent the last 90 mins reading through this thread and I have to say the quality of the workmanship is magnificent! Certainly an art that's sadly dwindling.

 

Im really impressed with that front end.  Any chance you would let someone take a mould of it so it could be remade in fibreglass?  I think it would certainly sell well

[Welding in new panels which order?]

I need to replace the front floors, lower A posts and a complete outer sill on our 78 Spitfire

 

Which order would you guys do these?
