As you may remember (last time your head was under the bonnet in Houx campsite!) mine is an in line Mocal stat, taking oil to a 10 row cooler mounted in front of the radiator. Works really well, with a stat, there is no harm in having a cooler, it can only help. The Frogeye won't scream quite as much with the longer diff that we fitted, however given your crazy temperatures, you mig...
I wouldn't even bother checking the condition of the radiator. I have two 1996 Fs with 100000 miles difference on their clocks, both needed their OEM radiators replacing (with ali TF ones) last year. It is very easy to do and very worth doing at the same time as the underfloor pipes. Even if you do the job yourself the 'saving' by using mild steel instead of SS replacements is minimal over time, ...
Last weekend started the project of door fit on TD. New hinges, strikers, and latches from Moss. Used garage door opener cable to adjust rear up and down movement of the tub. With slight adjustment, had the verticle adjustment of the doors perfect and closer like new. Leaving cables installed until putting tub on frame, can make any final adjustment with cables, shim and secure. The cables go from...
If you need anything brought over, we'll have a TINY bit of space in May (Primerose won't be ready, so we're coming in the MGA, and I'm not allowed more than half a tiny bag .....!) I'm sure I could put a rear panel over my head though!
Shame really, at the Bhive today was a large Dutch estate car, could have fitted half a midget in the boot :)
Mark. Good day to you. I can`t see that the 2 top panels are locked together with the center hinge)strip. Do that and put on the rubberstrips before you start reshaping the panels. Are you sure this bonnet is from the same car?. You WILL get this wright in the end. Take your time
Mark, I think Jim has suggested the answer to your problem at the rad. I notice in the picture, you do not have the centre strip [part #7] in place. This along with the inner support [part #9] will raise it up, and should help the fit.
I find it fitting that it was from this site that I found and bought this car in 2002. It has been a joy to own and drive. I've met wonderful people along the way, and enjoyed meeting strangers as they admired the car.
Alas, family changes mean it is time to sell. I'll post pics later, or email me directly.
This is a 1967, in wonderful shape. It has run like a top since day one...

I have for sale an excellent BGT rolling shell. I was going to build it for my wife but she has since got a MG Midget hence this is now not required.
The shell is a rubber bumper Jubilee and is in amazing condition. It has only done 40k miles and was in a garage unused for most of its life. A friend started the rebuild and was going to build a V8, but stopped after he had done the LH sid...
Buying a cheap car can be very easy these days. If you are a new young driver and looking for a bargain then visiting a second hand car website would be the most efficient option.
