Rick wrote the following before I sent my last post, but I did not see it until I sent mine: time)!!! This is certainly why I stuck with the Alpine. I cannot disagree with him. Catching that feeling

Anyone know Alan and Alice I. Lee? They were at SUNI with their Sunbeam Talbot. I tried to reach them at their old e-mail ( ailee@email.mcleodusa.net), but it bounced. Thanks for any help reaching th

To my knowledge all the bumpers and bumper brakets are the same front and rear. On some of the brackets, they do seem to have a slight angle on them suggesting a right and a left. I've seen various A

Someone commented to me that they thought I was denying that there were R&L sides for the bumper brackets. They then "corrected" me that there were. Well, so there you have it, there are R&L sides (t

Correction, THERE IS NO LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE!! There is a driver side and passenger side! That's because the driver side front bracket would be the passenger side rear bracket! So, now you know. Jay

I found this is nowhere near as easy as it appears. I've done it twice, and think the third would be the charm. First, I've always had the dash off. I suspect that you won't get the room you need jus

Actually, I had those two side pieces too. On the cars I've seen at least, those two side pieces are about 6-7" long, but then there were about 3 feet long of black pressboard in between those two s

XK'S Unlimited sells a really neat replacement for the Jaguar XK140, etc., that looks similar to ours. It is not simply a wad of rubber like Alpines, but a real bearing. I've been meaning to measure

I've got a big jaw. And, for good or bad, I'm willing to stick it out to be hit from time to time. A couple people have told me that the bumper brackets are not the same front and back, only the bump

I thought about this a little more. What does cause a steering to center? I assumed it was the forces created by the wheels rolling, like a gyrograph forcing them to be as straight as possible. Isn't

Paul's comment about getting the furflex to fit and having to do something about it first, is right on. What I did was carve away some of the foam underneath before I glued it down. Then I folded the

To those of you with Webers, or any other carb for that matter, using vibration gaskets, how are those supposed to be tightened? I was having a little leak through one from what I suspect was that th

[SNIP] I'm not an expert. But, "gel coat" on fiberglass cars is OVER the paint, not under it. They take their car body mold, spray it with the gel coat, then they spray it with paint, then they spray

I believe the RHD and LHD Alpines have the same piping. The only logic I can offer, at least from looking at the Alpine configuration, is the flow of the fluid at the "+" junction. The master cylinde

I have confirmed that RHD and LHD Alpines are piped the same. The servo and "+" are the right side regardless of driver seating. I don't know what the story is about the Tiger. Jay

On the Tiger, I have no doubt there is no room whatsoever for the brake and clutch MC and the servo. So, those must get swapped on RHD/LHD. I don't however know how the pipes are routed after the ser

Here's something peculiar on the Tiger. In the Gold Portfolio, page 84, they show a shot of a LHD Tiger. There is a hard brake line that goes forward of the servo, but none in front of the MC's (see
