Triggers Broom

Thanks guys for all of your advice. It is booked in to Moordale Motors next week so hopefully we can resolve all of the issues.

Well thank you for the input. I will wait until I get the log book and start enquiries from there.

Ah I see. Well I really don't know what to say about that! I have MOT's going back 12 years and a sales receipt from a classic car dealer from more recently. What do you think has gone on?

Thanks for the contribution Dan. In all honesty, I know nothing about any of the things you say. I understand that there are people out there that like everything to be correct but so long as it's safe and starts I am just hoping to have some fun. I am concerned that the more I learn about these cars I may finish up wanting to put it back to an original condition but hope I am strong enough to resist! All information posted on here is gratefully received......positive or negative - I am a big boy and happy to hear all opinions/comments. David

Do these help?

Thanks Pete It is in a friends garage and we will take another look next week. Here is another picture

Thank you - I will check them out.

Hi Pete Thanks for the response - I will take a look. There is a bit of a problem starting and it won't run for long. Checked out the floats and the choke. You ask what model it is? Apparently, it is a Mkl chassis, with Mkll body components and with the main body number that of a MkIII !! Here is a photo.

Hi Guys I am new to the club and the forum. I have just bought a 1970 Spitfire (Although questionable how much of it is actually 1970!!), and would like to have the carburettors fully stripped and serviced. I have motorcycles and know what a difference this can make. Can you recommend someone that does this please? Not sure if they are standard but they are twin SUs. If anybody is out in the Enfield area, I would be interested in meeting up when I have it running properly. Cheers David
