Great Day At The Show!

A long while since I had time to post on here......I had a brilliant time at the NEC Show last Friday. I even got to meet the legendary Ray Newell...! :D What a lovely chap to talk to Ray is.

Re: Intermittent wiper control

Jolly exciting....There is a small feature of my RWTM wiper module in the current Practical Classics magazine (page 15 if you're interested :wink: )

It's now in stock at ESM, Charles Ware & Europa Specialist Spares! :D

You read my mind!
My next post was going to be about this '70s version but for some reason my thread has been locked! :o
I don't know why!

Are we not allowed to explore & share projects, discuss ideas & encourage each other on this forum? :cry:

Well, I've bitten the bullet & made a proper start...even if it's only a listing in the For Sale section here! :o

She'll be at a car show in Devon on Sunday so I'll put a sign on her there!

Riley 1.5 brake drums

Hi all,

I have fitted disc brakes to my Traveler so want to sell the Riley 1.5 drum set up I have taken off, to help the Traveller maintenance piggy bank balance!
I can find none for sale, currently or historically, so can anyone tell me what I should expect to get for them?
Andy.
