Message-ID: <152bd14f668e2f8f3e861819af0154e0@vodafone.co.nz>

I would be grateful for advice on the following problem. 

In the process
of inserting new rear spring hangers I attempted to redrill for new drive
pins. The hangers are hardened to a point where an ordinary HSS drill makes
no impression whatsoever. Any suggestions/advice or an alternative approach
would be much appreciated?

The MMM list has been remarkably quiet in the new year, so here's something to
prod your brain cells into motion:

While sorting through boxes of MG miscellany from the recesses of the garage,
I came across a pair of Lucas trafficators.  To my eye, they are close to
identical, though the model numbers are different.  Mounting brackets on both
are 5-5/8" long, and the metal covers on the arms are 7-7/8" long.

    #1 -- Side of metal mounting bracket marked "Model SF34N", also stamped "4
50" [mfg. date, I presume].  Bottom of bracket stamped "Model SF 35   54021
12V  HR[?]-3-59"     Metal cover on the arm is painted.

    #2 -- Side of metal mounting bracket marked "Model SF35L", also stamped "8
46".  No markings visible on bottom of bracket.  Metal cover on arm is
chromed.

I have no memory of where I got them (did they come with the PA 30+ years ago?
Did I pick them up at a flea market somewhere?) so I don't know whether they
belong to the PA.  Can your collective wisdom tell me what models they're
correct for?


Many thanks,
Sarah Carr

Wondering what the location and date the main NA MMM Register gathering is for
2012?
thanks
