Hi Roger , could you spec a suitable Powerlite Alternator for a Vitesse Paul

I’ve gone the Huco route and worked for me Paul

Here’s my MGF seat setup in my Vitesse Saloon seat fully back no interference (only just ) seat fully back , inertia belt position inclined to rear , no interference Rear right post , aluminium spacer tube , can measure if you want rear left post , wiring is for heated seats front posts , half of rear posts , again can measure if you want I used the original seat holes and have the instructions for conversion somewhere Paul

Yes the inertia belts will fit . I have MGF seats In my Vitesse saloon . I can send a pic later on today to show the clearance Paul

Is the welder practical for bodywork ? Paul

Is it both carbs leaking or just one . I had the same issue with the rear carb on my Vitesse , and rubber slivers were holding the float valve open . I also replaced the fuel pump with a modern copy and this made it worse , too much pressure . Suggest reconditioning your old one or move to electric fuel pump. I chose the latter and now use a Huco 13301 , nice bit of kit . Paul

I use https://www.classic-oils.net/Classic-Oils-Heritage-20W50 in my Vitesse and Castrol EP90 in the Gearbox and Diff nb 20/50 also used for Stromburg dampers Paul

Welcome aboard , loads of help and advice here though we do like photos . A couple of suggestions don’t purchase R 9 from EBay as there’s a lot of fake . How do I know ? Best to buy Gates Barricade . The club shop sells this brand so does Moss . If you do go down the route of an electric fuel pump I used the Huco 133010 which is a pull pump and situated in the engine bay . In my Vitesse it’s by the battery . There is no need for a pressure gauge . Target price £45 ish . You would also need an inertia switch Paul

Stunning motor, saw it last weekend when collecting a gearbox . The photos don’t do it justice . Simon, Rays son said the engine was special as ex police . Paul

Love the mobile phone when was that pic taken . Must be years ago 😱 Paul

They only came online today Paul

The ash tray being the major item but this could be hide a usb socket etc Paul

My Vitesse would “ hesitate” going up hill , the problem as sorted by retarding the timing . Just one idea to start looking at Paul

I used POR 15 on my tank and it’s fine . The Rustbuster solution is cheaper and the brand seems to have a good reputation Paul

Personally can’t recommend AT . The refurbed Strombergs I bought were very shiny but needed rebuilding . Maybe it was a one off Paul

Rustbuster sell a kit to seal the tank . Paul

I’ve found a guy in France who replaces sunroofs on classics and he will hopefully answer my questions . I’ll check YouTube again to see if I can find Paul

I met a man in a pub 🤗 Paul

Hi Colin I’ve seen both before BUT when I originally printed the Tudor some of the pics didn’t print for some reason so the instructions didn’t make sense . This time round I’ve printed from your link and all came out . Many thanks . I’ve also located a guy in France who will assist if he can . You only have one chance when it comes to gluing and the assembly needs to be done in the correct order . Paul

Hi Pete couldn’t find a maker though don’t think it’s important , just so long as it’s the right size vinyl roof 😱 Do you recognise the headlining ? Paul

Yes full length 34 ins not sure if it’s Webasto or Britax Paul
