There was a recent thread regarding the round cast bronze (?) dashboard plaques fitted to Spitfires for the American market. If anyone needs one of these, I know of a stock of originals here in the

With the exception of an 18 month period when I used a Toyota MR2, I have used nothing but Triumphs as daily transport since mid-1990! Admittedly, I have had several to choose from, and even then I h

This was my first thought also. It sounds like the excess fluid isn't allowed to return to the reservoir.

Fitting a hardtop is a good way to ensure the bulkhead is aligned correctly. This will ensure the top edge is in a correct relative position. Also, take measurements across the door aperture of anoth

Does the front end skip about over potholes? I've had this happen where the front wheels are in a positive camber attitude. I shimmed out the front lower wishbones to give slight negative camber, ie.

I think (but I'm not sure) that Eastwood used to sell it over here. They became T & S, and were in Yate. Their website no longer works, so I couldn't check. The other possibility is Frost, whose cont

Sounds like a sticking caliper piston on the side in question. A rebuilt or replacement caliper should sort it.

The alloy bellhousing was fitted to late 948cc Heralds from mid 1960, and to early 1200 Heralds until late 1962. They were fitted to very early Mk1 Spitfires only - I have seen no more than a handful

I concur with Jonmac on both counts! Must get another for the MkIV as the old one won't fit since I installed headrests... Bill Davies.

I recently bought a standard stainless system for my MkIV from Bells in Swindon (this is the same system the TSSC supply) for 130 pounds! I think TSSC list price is around 160. It might be worth enq
