Hi!
I4m new to this list - so I4m posting my first question (s) ... again. First
time something went wrorng ...

I4m doing a full body-off rebuilding of a Vitesse Mk1 (one of maybe four in
Norway), and I 4ve got some questions. Maybe somebody out there can help me.

1. The car was great fun, but a bit scary on bad, wet western norwegian
roads. So: Anyone got any experience with a camber compensator on a Vitesse?

2. The roof of the car is not to good (nasty glass sunroof), and I4m
planning to make the saloon into a "convertible", using a copy of a period
(late sixties) kit, a simple hood and a three piece aluminium/wooden frame.
The chassis is (now!) perfect, with new outriggers. Should I reinforce the
outriggers even more?

3. Where can I buy the extra cabriolet door catches? These are not listed in
the main part supplier4s catalogues, and the breakers I4ve mailed havent4t
got them ...


Regards
Jan
