You can't actually see numbers, the amount of metal removed from the key blank is represented by a number. I.E. a little bit removed is a 1, a lot is a 4 and none is a zero. Mind you, that's all from memory working at a Ford dealer 30 years ago. So it is possible to "read" key by comparing each "notch". Nick

You can read the key number yourself, it will start with "T" and then be a string of digits, each will be 4 or less. The T is for tibb (the type of lock) and the digits represent how much of the key is cut away at each "notch". If it's an old Chubb lock i've no idea apart from they're good for ripping your pocket linings. HTH Nick

Where was everyone? We had a lovely evening, me, Sue and Andy. See you all next month hopefully. Nick

We should be there. Nick

Well, that's the 2b all tucked up in it's new home. It's had a 3 week vacation on my Auntie's back garden while we moved house. Spent the morning making room for the 2b and trailer, but was still worried it might not fit as the doorstep for the front door sticks out a bit far and in effect narrows the garage door by 4 or 5 inches. Apart from buying a new battery soon, that's all the kit's getting done to it this winter, every room in the new bungalow needs attention 1st. Happy new year to everyone. Nick

Intend being there. Nick

On the 2b the rear seat mount is a piece of 2 inch angle bolted between the plates for Sierra rear beam. This is also used for the handbrake adjusters. HTH Nick

Hope to be there. Nick

Good luck

Sorry to hear that Marcus, our thoughts are with you both. Nick (& Sue)

Busy is good Terry, better than being bored. Nick

I should be there, don't know about the Missus yet cos' she's a bit under the weather. Nick

I'll be there, but on my own. The Missus is going to the football. Nick

Quite often Transit ball joints are used, but both with right hand threads. I'm sure someone with specific knowledge will be able to help further. Nick

There's usually a few there, but not me this time. I'll be heading much further south (Holibobs) Nick

Looked a great weekend, sorry I missed it, but mother-in-law's 80th birthday party and house moving stuff had priority. Nick

We're planning to be there. Might even dig the kit out. Nick

Excellent work. Nick

Try GBS Nick

I've got sierra gauges and sierra sender, and ever since I put the sender in the correct position I get a pretty good indication of how much is in the tank. I don't know how far I can go on 1 tank full, but at 47 litres it's a fair distance. Nick

Can't make this 1, going on holiday that day and I don't think I can suggest it as a "rest" stop seeing as it's in the wrong direction. Nick

I've run with mud flaps for a number of years and they seem to help (can't really remember before I fitted them) Nick

Fingers crossed we'll be there. Might even dig the kit out. Nick

Got tuner wheel nut on mine, M12 by 1.5 I think. Seem to work ok. Nick

Superspec '05s didn't come with an engine when they ran out of rover lumps. Still called a superspec though. The DOHC kit was basically a spec with no engine. Nick
