Thanks for the reply, are there any modifications needed if a j type box was fitted instead of a d type.

I have just purchased a gt6 with non overdrive, if i want to put an overdrive unit in is there a choice of units to use.
The gt6 is a mk3. Any help would be appreciated.

Lucky Lad getting to do his first resto with dad, memory's that will stay forever.

Thanks Clive,
Its a car that will need to be restored so it might be worth considering.
-
Is a fully restored gt6 with an original gt6 engine but not the one that should be with the car worth less than one that has matching numbers or dosent it matter.

I contacted the HQ and the very nice lady said i had to be a full member to get the info but i could wait till the fri 7th and then she would give me the details.
This was because she said it was club policy to give first choice to members. Whilst i understand this, we all know this will not be the case as someone might know a member and get them to get the details. I thought the fact that someone wanted to buy one of these cars and get them back on the road would be the overall deciding factor when selling and not that it should be offered to a member first.
I have been the member of a lot of car clubs over the years and i dont want to do that again. I do like many enjoy going on the forums but my main aim is to save cars that i like from rotting into oblivion.

I have spotted a gt6 mk3 for sale along with a vitesse convertible on the club classified. I was wondering if any one had recieved the club magazine and could give me the contact details for both of these cars. Tried the club hq but they wouldent give me the numbers. just looking to build up my collection.
Thanks

Looking to fit inertia front seatbelts in the vitesse, can you fit front belts from any car or do i need to fit a certain type.
I have seen a pair of new ones on ebay which will fit a gt6 can these be used.

Enjoy your day, would do a trackday but i am a bit to precious over my cars to let an idiot who thinks he can drive in his
suped up corsa give me a not so friendly bump. I an sure you have meet the type.

What you racing clive ?
-
Thanks for all the help and advice, will anyone of you be showing at the nec.
-
Dont intend to get hung up on its history but it would just be nice to know if the information is available.
Once the car comes back from a full restoration hopefully at the end of feb i will try to get to a few shows. I have found out the interior was black-trim code 11.
Going to try to get to the nec on the friday and hopefully see a couple of nice vitesses .
Do people put pics up of how their restorations are going and if so on what part of the forum ?
-
Dont think so as commission plate is the same as the v5 which shows HC11559CV , but as it was reg for the road in jan 69 it could still be the last one
that was put on the road ? Will try again to see if i can make out the trim code.
-
Found the Commission plate today, The car was originally in paint code 17 which upon checking is Damson. Now do i change the
colour back to original as Damson on the vitesse was only on 1968 cars and is apparently rare and then i will need to find out its
original interior colour. What do you think ???

Hi,
Thanks for the info whats the courier, and where do i find the commission number as the info i stated was from the v5.

Hi,
New member and have just bought a mk1 2ltr vitesse conv and i know that the mk2 came out in Oct 68 but my car was registered in Jan 69. Can i find out what was the last mk1 conv to be registered for the road and if so how. Cheers for any help.
Which overdrive unit ?
in Gearbox & Overdrive

Thanks for the replys guys, have bought an overdrive d type gearbox along with the drive shaft from a 2ltr vitesse. I also have another shorter driveshaft from a gt6
i will pick up the other bits i need when i start the restoration. This is likely to be a while as i have the vitesse convertible to get finished first and then it will be a choice between which of the gt6s i get done.
