I'm thinking it might be time to fit a 1098 diff , I presume it's as easy as pulling the half shafts clear, swap the whole unit with a fresh gasket and putting the half shafts back in?

Yeah I thought make it bigger and space it equally, looks more like it's meant to be there!

Definitely, I'm lucky to have this region for driving old cars and modern motorbikes around on my doorstep.

I really like Spain to the point yo hablo español bastante bien despues dos años de clases con mi maestro

Oh yeah I've put new pin stripe on, looked naked without it, in future I might paint my spare wheels sage green along with the grill then put a birch grey stripe on it.

G3, T cut, autoglym and touched up all the chips, needs waxing and I've ordered a front bumper blade and bolts.

That's looking great

I really like it.

Sorted my clunking, loose lever arm bolts and the steering rack needed a nip up too, fingers crossed I think I've got it and at no cost! Drained and cleaned the front dampers before filling with fresh oil, I suspect what came out was older than me. Sealed the front screen inside and out all the way ...

Yes I agree, if that had gone ten minutes earlier it would have been a recovery truck journey home for a new part on a sixty year old car which is crazy!

At least its good now, my old ones were really bad but still didn't break.

I think the engine noise is the distributor shaft drive after using some wood as a listening stick, could be the cam or just the shaft, can it be extracted without taking the cam out?

I've welded the other side too by the way.

I couldn't weld it in situ although I tried, by the time I'd got it out I decided to weld it myself as a replacement would be the same so I'd weld that anyway now I've seen this one, I'm going to contact the supplier and get a refund though along with letting them know as these are not fit for purpo...

I'm going to take it out, fit a new rubber and seal in and out I think!

Today's problem, brand new clutch pedal snapped!

Been sorting out some niggles, windscreen still leaking even after loads of silicone sealant, New electronic dizzy fitted but possibly (hopefully) causing a pinking but I've got a nasty feeling my engine is dying as I think I heard it before swapping it. After fitting a new top trunnion and polybush...

I haven't had an mot on mine since the pre 60 law came in, now I've rebuilt a lot of it I'm going to take it for one voluntarily.

I've never looked at it as a jumble show, I like the big tool stands though. Now as a car show it's second to none imo, yeah you can pay half to walk around a wet field and see the same cars year after year, have a crap burger for £6 and be done in a few hours but I've been going most years to the n...

Hi, welcome!

As mentioned my car might give you some inspiration being a similar age four door, I'll try and replace plenty of pictures that photobucket ruined when I get time, they might help you even though my welding isn't great, lol.

Good luck
