Those look about right Steve, and I like the sound of Dirk's idea for getting a good finish :)

I would use the 1 mm cutting discs to get it close but then finish it flat with a power file 80 grit to get it very close and then 120 grit to...

I personal think it detracts from the beauty of the car, I would imagine you will get more hits on your web site from it just to see what you are...

Interesting thanks. The tank is steel (not stainless), I found a couple of cutting/grinding options at Screwfix, 115mm dia: Cutting:...

I can't find a picture of it at the moment but when I brought my Eureka too many years ago to want to count, it was covered with Wattle Paint...

Me too! :thumbup:

Yes I'm liking this a bit more

I really like that idea Alistair. I'll mock it up and see what it looks like. :thumbup:

I tend to agree Phill. The website address and phone numbers don't really blend in that well. What about simply limiting things to your business...

Thanks Alistair. The problem I had was with the paint which was a very poor paint job and peeled off when I removed a temporary section of wrap. I...

Hi Phill, I remember seeing a Nova when I was in my teens and it had promotional info on it. In those days it was painted on which must have...

It's not just me then..

Hmm... if memory serves, your tank is stainless steel? if so, trying to cut any of those fittings, which would also be stainless steel, will be a...

Martin, that must be difficult but I can understand. I'm semi retired at the moment, but it still feels like I'm working full time so finding time to...

Peter, I feel your pain! I took voluntary redundancy in 2012 and don't get my state pension for another 6 years. In the meantime I'm self...

My Wilwoods came with 10mm threads but a simple adapter is available also https://tinyurl.com/yyqexohf As for tank, I would slice off with...

I am using a front beam designed for air suspension because I want the strengthened shock towers (which are designed to take the full weight of the...

Hopefully Buffy I have spent all I need to apart from the door cards, (GRP and a bit of covering.) mind you, I thought that last year too and the AN6...

Jim's solution is ideal for my car. I can remove the bonnet without having to unplug piping everytime and the routing of the pipework was simplicity...

Thanks Brett - I was already aware of the procedure. However, as Martin points out I wasn't expecting the other side to be affected. I will try...

I know the feeling! Started a new job and having to rent a room away during the week, so have no time at all on the car - it was at least an...

I think Phil's problem is that adjusting one side is affecting the other, which seems a bit peculiar - not heard of it working like that! (unless it...

The FSM (factory service manual) goes into detail on how to set up the spring plates. I used this method to set my ride height and once I got them...

Peter, if not fitted not required. You have been away far too long ! 😂

Peter I feel we are in the same path at the moment. No time due to work commitments, when we have time to look we spend money but do not drive it...

It shouldn't need it due to the age of the car (1967) but would be easy enough to install should needs be - however I like the look of the rear with...

Ignition module arrived today so away with contacts and condenser.:yeah: Also the big job, changing to OEM gearbox mounts, as you know that means ...

4 days ago, but work does need doing to pay for the SS. I have received the new OEM gearbox mounts so engine rearwards a bit to change those, also...

Looking very smart Phil, one thing I noticed is, no reversing light. Is that an omission or just pre-requirement?
