A very kind offer, thanks Tom. We have since spoken on the phone and will see what time Tom has available after finishing his own car and helping Gary along with his. Altho i have done a lot of the body repairs it still needs a lot of shaping and surface prep and my eyesight is not as sharp as it us...

We woz there too, intended to phone you when we arrived Cliff but your no not in my new phone :roll: . I recently put a new carb manifold and other bitz on the 63 Jensen CV8 that was competing, it drove well considering its age and weight!. Also liked the clan fitted with tubo and Honda injection al...

Sounds good, we're in!. Plus Mk4 of course.

It's been some time since i've done an update on my Mk6, a tale of woe sort of. I'd been waiting for my promised slot in the paintshop and with time and life whizzing by it was Jan when i went back to see if it was my turn yet. All i got was a shoulder shrug and told it was too cold to be painting f...

The only alternators i've had are updated units to replace the prehistoric chrysler units fitted to Jensen Interceptors, not much help i'm afraid!. I'm sure there's a pic of an engine fitted to a yellow mk6 on here somewhere showing the correct alternator. I have the same 17acr alt' you have fitted ...

I have used Wosp products on several classic cars and have been happy with both quality and price. They do a nice fast wind starter for the imp and stock all sizes of race alternators. http://www.wosperformance.co.uk Edit: Just remembered you have to order tho' a stockist, i use http://www.ccw-tools...

Tom i read in your other post that you had an appointment with the rolling road, how did it go?.

I see Gary has roped you in for some help, don't get the parts mixed up cause they won't fit! .

Dave.

I have no direct experience but know that these dash systems have many ways of triggering the speed curcuit. Two race cars i've been involed in had them fitted, one had a pickup near the wheel rim with a trigger stuck to the rim itself, the other used the same setup but fitted to the propshaft. I'm ...

Hi Jeremy, The SU pump has been ticking away happily for over 25 years with little or no maintianance so deserves a rest or rebuild!. It's an AUF503 which is a double ended duel imput, the only place that appears to stock them is Holden. Following Robin and Gary's comments i phoned a Facet supplier ...

Sorting through the stuff in one of the lock ups i may be losing. 4 wheel disc brake kit, i've not used any of it but it came with one of the cars i bought. 2 calipers at top left of pic are alloy, front discs in red primer have new bearings fitted and seem to fit std imp stub axle. Rear discs will ...
