  1. Probably just a fuse as the headlights are on a different fuse to the rest of the lights. Don't ask me which one though I actually replaced many of my fuses with the ones that light up when they fail. Makes tracking them down much easier.

  2. Had confirmatio from the organisers that we have a nice discrete club stand next to the castle but near the back (Square 46 on the site map). All the relevant details are in the attached PDF file. Any questions let me know. Kimbolton 2025.pdf

  4. The only issue I can think of is if you are looking to get an age related registration number. You would then need to show proof of the minimum number of parts from the original donor vehicle, or alternatively you would need to provide proof of the minimum number of new parts for a new reg number. Either way I don't imagine an LSD will make any difference to the IVA test ............................ however, somebody may know otherwise

  5. Finally, after almost a year of burocracy between the department for transport and the historic cars registry, I'm the owner of the Robin hood 2b of my previous post. Now I need to start working on it, I used it this week almost as a daily driver. But it need some works, it's running quite hot and the carbs need some tuning, but I'm happy to finally be able to drive it

  7. Thanks Andy, That’s great info. Sounds like there is definitely something incorrectly wired up…. I was going down the rabbit hole of the ecu being duff but upon reading your info and studying the wiring diagram i see that the 12v supply comes directly from the main relay to the injector NK wire and also feeds pin 28 (ecu positive feed) so if our wiring was correct we’d certainly have 12v. we’ll have a look in the next few days and report back…. I think this injector issue is the only thing now stopping the engine starting….

  8. Lovely day for a runout and picnic (unless your car cooling system isn't up to scratch.). Nice surprise when we arrived as the parking machine was broken so we parked for free. Three kits and one tintop (41-year old starter motor failure on 4th kit), And a couple of hours looking out over Rutland Water. It doesnlt get better than this.

  9. I'm impressed, it's looking very professional and if you carry on at this rate you'll be on the road by the weekend

  10. A good day for a visit to GBS. A good turnout, enough to allow everone to park in the car park but not too many so you can't move, and a good variety of cars, Cakes still superb I had an 1-hour run each way and weather was just right. Looking forward to the next one. Three members from the Club attended, all of us regular visitors. Should really be more ?

  11. It might be a bit late now you’ve started painting, but I had good results with Frosts Extreme Chassis Paint in satin black. I used it to brush paint my wishbones and hubs 3 years ago and still looks good now. I was put off using hammerite smooth as reviews suggested it chipped easily and came off in flakes.

  12. Reminds me of the Morris Minor master cylinder. Fitted in chassis section from on top and bolted through from underneath then the front torsion bar fitted across the bolt heads blocking in the bolts. And that was done in the factory to every production car.

  13. That's annoying! Both rear wishbones were bolted in before rear panel and there is insufficient space to remove the bolts. It's hacksaw time!
