I wonder how much it will fetch ? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/196278093969? Paul

I bought SIP 04383 - SIP QT100/10 Low Noise Compressor excellent bit of kit , doesn’t annoy the neighbours paul

Wasn’t one called the Grafton ?

My modern Hyundai Tucson had Mot advisory with 4 year old tyres - mileage 16,000 miles Paul

Finally got round to correcting body tub spread on the passenger side of my Vitesse saloon . The overhang at the base of the door was 5mm. I used a spare seatbelt folded in 2 and joined with 2 plates and securing bolts . The ringed end bolted in place using the existing top seatbelt bolt in the rear passenger area. The other end (plated ) bolted and replacing the door catch. The lower seat belt securing bolt on the drivers side was removed ( inertia belt setup) and replaced by original ring bolt. The ratchet setup is rated at 2 tonnes and although the process was scary with groaning and creaking it worked and the passenger door is now flush with the body . The whole process took less than 1hr . Should have done it years ago I checked the seatbelt webbing after the big pull and it was still intact with no movement at either plate so can be used again. Paul

Yes the top bolt was the last bit . It was a pain and on one side I used a sharpened over length bolt and cut it off and added the nut . The bolt can only go in from the rear to the front of the car and access is difficult . I used 2 tools the chisel point was the most useful and had to cut it down due to access , both sections of the chisel are shown ( Screwfix I think ) Paul

From memory I used a screwdriver to start the process then sacrificed a longer bolt which had a ground pointed end . Once in place used the original bolt at the other end . Hope this makes sense . Paul

Another vote for Bilthamber Paul

Does the other guide have to be removed as well as the 1/4 light frame Paul

What is the sequence to remove the door window ? The clips and window trims have been removed . Is the next stage to remove the window guide ? See pic and then remove the 2 circlips securing the window to the regulator Thanks in advance Paul

What temperature are you spraying at ? Paul

I’ve used Martrim https://www.martrim.co.uk/ For a headling for a MGBGT Sunroof and they sell heatproof glue.Another supplier to check out is Woollies Paul

I mot my Vitesse every year, peace of mind. The local mot guy lets me sit in the car to assist and then allows me in the pit to view the chassis. Paul

Yes that was me. As Uncle Pete says if it was good enough in the day why change . So Fram filters are the ones I use and change every 2 years Paul

I used https://www.screwfix.com/p/felt-support-tray-5-pack/36622 it was left over from a roof repair. Did an excellent job, even the folds in the trays are in the right place !! Paul

In the end purchased Fram PH966B for my Vitesse from https://www.arnoldclarkautoparts.com/products/fram-oil-filter-ph966b?_pos=1&_sid=55a69e467&_ss=r purchased 3 for £19.75 delivered Paul
