I wanted to go as it’s only 30 mins away. Family in Lunnen and I have 6 labs to babysit. Any good, next event for me to grab parts is Belvoir in September.

Until I find out what it was exactly between manufacture and registration 79-91 I’m unsure how to move forward.

Good to know. Can I ask if you got the information via another source, RLC etc?

Has anyone had any dealing with the military lightweight club and their Merlin database request. I sent details through to unpack the history of a series 3 (in the hope) and to date have heard nothing. If it’s a dead-end I can look to other alternatives (nothing lost)

These things might look cool but do not drive like modern vehicles. Make sure you enjoy the frugality of the drive first, lorra time and effort to invest otherwise.

Great line.

Love the interior colour. Painted many things Eau de Nile in the early 90s simply because it was expected on vehicle cleaning day :D

Can’t it be ‘Ant Anstead’, take something from the abyss of shed shiite, fettle and mig weld?

Be cheaper to fix than give away as a parts car.

What ****witery :rolleyes:

The wife and me did ours, took 10 minutes. String, Fairy and a nylon pry tool. The seal took longer to orientate.

I think there is room in the market for such product. Good luck getting it printed over here. Its not for me for the same reasons @Datatek says, however, if a 3d printed standard stereo surround could be made to replace the typically busted oem unit that would be grand.

Plus gas and map gas torch and a long 1/4 breaker bar. Good work out but very rewarding. Just be careful not to nick the cv boot rubber removing the hub retaining nuts. Use a 1/2 extension and a socket to break the rust between the hub and housing once you’ve undone them a couple of turns.

Do you not have any kids that need a volcano school project?

Suspension is behaving now it has the correct values set.

Finally swopped out the engine oil and fitted two new bump stops as they were in the to do pile. Next is to sort the brakes.

Very nice, enjoy.

A very well reasoned argument that should form the basis of anyone’s decision to upgrade to unnecessary parts 👍

Fed it fuel again.

Was that your dinner last night?
