If you are not sure what vehicle the 1275cc engine is originally from just post a picture of the engine and it will become clear what vehicle the 1275cc engine came from.

I’m not sure I can show enough detail for you Phil

Thanks The rad cap that is fitted to my 1275 engine is 7 psi It was from a midget I think but it’s been rebuilt by a company called Ivor Searle and they have fitted their own serial number so I’m not sure what it came from.

Not sure what this is

I’ve got a 1275 engine in my saloon and it has a battered looking housing I’ve had a look on line and can’t see one that’s the same as mine . The outlet pipe has a very slight kink towards the radiator and the ones I’ve seen got straight out as per pic Some are around £8 and others are £25 but they ...

Thanks I need to change my 2 complete front seat covers and you can get a leather set for £300 for the pair However they wouldn’t quite match the rear seat as the lines go from top to bottom I could change the rear as well I suppose but would be a bit pricey for no real benefit I think I will go for...
