Hi Ed

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...

well I don’t want to be slowing down on my favourite types of roads and I've put up with it long enough

I got the exhaust manifold a little closer to the underside

tyres with an 80 ratio instead of 70 will have to wait and they’re pumped up as much as I want them

no chance of the Mrs or I going on a diet

so yes it's raise the front, either longer (standard length) uprat...

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...

Dominic,

Where can I buy these jets?

Its for the side and rear windows of a midget hardtop, the side windows are particularly fiddly

Ive got the time to get the right tool, I dont wont to gouge my newly painted hardtop, or my hand for that matter

I now see there are a few about on e bay etc

thanks

Grrrrr - tough luck Alex.

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 :)

Today my TD is 59 years old. Took it for a drive, kinda cold but fun.

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.
