  1. Does anyone have if they even existed the body panel identification pictures/list or whatever.

    Just been looking at what came with my 2B and not sure if they're all there.

    called gbs they sent me a very vague poor quality picture of the zero panel's not very helpful!

     

  2. Hi does anyone know where I can buy a new stainless zetec exhaust manifold for my 2B, I want it to exit from the lower side panel not over the top rail, if not then I'll have to make my own just trying to cut the build time down a bit.

    Cheers in advance.

  3. Thanks guys but I already have accounts with consumable suppliers as I used to run a 4x4 repair business before the financial downturn

    On the spacer subject I've made some stainless spacers to suit but mine miraculously are the same both sides! !!

    And i know not to use stainless in place of 8.8 mild(;-}

  4. I'm beginning to realise that it's all a bit haphazard especially after watching the videos! !!!!!!!!!! I now realise that these kits should never have been sold to anyone without a degree in engineering! No wonder people struggle to pass the iva test. Fair play to those that have.

    Looking forward to mine (:-} not.

    Thanks to all

  5. Thanks for that mower man, I do know the difference I'm currently a generator engineer and my father was an hgv engineer so got taught that about 40+ years ago I was just trying to take the easy way, but now I think of it I doubt the list ever went into that much detail anyway hey ho out with the very near gauge and the note pad

    Cheers

  6. Hi again

    Thanks for the reply's I guess I was just being a bit lazy don't get much time at home mostly in some foreign land. I know screwfix etc do bolts it's just the difference between bolts and set screws that makes the measuring more complicated.

    thanks for your interest.

  7. Hi all bought a 2b part built last year and I've just got to the point of re attaching the front suspension someone couldn't drill a straight hole! Anyway I don't appear to have all the nuts and bolts, does anyone have the list that was supposed to come with the kit as I don't seem to have all the paperwork ether!

    Cheers

  8. Hi thanks for the response so far, I'v been looking through the dvla and vosa web site's (very time consuming) and i found this: http://www.direct.go.../DG_198210 and this: http://www.direct.go...hicle/DG_190929 all very confusing! it would seem that strictly speaking becuse all of the hubs and rear sub frame came from gbs and are used then i should end up with a q plate, guess ill have to hope that my local dvla (bristol) cant interpret the information either!. think ill give them a call see if they can put me straight.

    cheers ivan.

  9. Hi all

    I’ve had a look around but cant find the answer I’m looking for but I might just be blind!

    The question is if I buy a new engine that has no number like the one from kit spares and i'm not using a donor car how will the dvla select a registration year??

    hope some one can help many thanks in advance

    Ivan
