Don`t shoot the messenger
Ian & Martin would have been on the photos but they ran off when they saw Andi with a gun in his hands 🤣

Super Spec Ride Height
Over the years I have had Gaz coil-overs with 2 locking rings and also ones with 1 ring + grub screw. The originals on my 2B had grub screws but replacements (from GBS) had 2 rings. I would recommend you fit grub screws into yours if they're missing so that they don't self adjust. I would also recommend that you check your corner weights. I wouldn't rely on measurements alone to get your car balanced correctly, RH chassis were never that precise on dimensions but are easily set up by checking corner weights.

Staffordshire Area Meet 29th July 2026
See you there Andi. Just a reminder for everyone 🤪 we're meeting on Wednesdays now, which seems to be a more popular night. The pub postcode is ST15 0PX. The weather's looking good for it too 😀

Air Filters
Have a look at Ramair, amybe something like https://ramair-filters.co.uk/ms-007-2x-twin-inlet-motorcycle-carb-sock-air-filter/ They do wide a range of foam filters for bikes (and cars). I'm sure you'll find something you can make fit 🤔

Robin hood badge
Hi Tom, Sorry, yesterday wasn't the "quiet" day I was expecting. Anyway, I've managed to find it this morning. Have a look at the photo and see if it's what you are after - it's self adhesive (sticky backed) flexible plastic. .

Kimbolton Car Show 13th July 2025
Just a point on Kimbolton. I bought an "early bird" ticket some time ago. Andy paid on the gate and his ticket was £2 less than mine (he also got a programme, which I didn't). Lesson learnt, next year I'll pay on the gate.

I've had one knocking about in the garage somewhere for ages. I saw it about a month ago but I can't remember where 🤔. I'm busy today but I'll have a look tomorrow and see if I can find it again.

Kimbolton Car Show 13th July 2025
There's always space for one more 😀 We don't normally meet up before - I've got about 125 miles to cover so it's more a question of whether I'll make it on time 😂 Alan's a bit closer than me so he might be able to meet up with you somewhere. You'll need to book in - see website https://kimboltoncountryfayre.com/ for more details. Hopefully see you there, Steve

Help - fibreglass repairs
I knew of a good few bodyshops in the city but didn't realise quite how many there are. Having spent forever on the phone & tinternet I managed to find 2 out of hundreds who repair fibreglass bodywork. One of these only does repairs to TVRs so that left me with a choice of one. They've now had a look at the car and they did seem to know exactly what would need doing and no, it won't be cheap. Hopefully it will all be sorted by Christmas 😄

Help - fibreglass repairs
Only a minor bump, the van handbrake didn't hold and it slowly rolled down the hill with the driver chasing it. I'll tell you the full story when I see you - you won't believe it. It's only bodywork damage to the fibreglass "nose" (nothing structural) which doesn't look much but will no doubt run to several thousand. No worries his insurance is paying 😄

Help - fibreglass repairs
On account of a runaway van rolling into the front of my car, I'm in need of someone who can repair it. Can anyone recommend a repairer near Stoke-on-Trent ? Thanks, Steve
