Ned.


James - 18/5/04 at 04:59 PM

Has anyone who's going got a manifold suitable for a 32/36 Weber carb?

Got this lovely new carb off Paul and it doesn't fit the manifold I've got! :-(

Aaaaaagh!

Cheers,

James


trueblue - 18/5/04 at 06:02 PM

I shall be there complete with some piccies of progress so far plus a few questions.


theconrodkid - 18/5/04 at 08:39 PM

anyone got a spare interior mirror they dont want?if so can you bring it along


bob - 18/5/04 at 09:39 PM

I'm up for it

any fear of a lift

I'll look for interior mirror,i'm sure i've got an old mini one knocking about that might be adaptable.


ned - 19/5/04 at 08:32 AM

Steve,

You still want those sierra front hubs? haven't seen you in ages, so remind me, if so i'll try and remeber them this time!

Ned.


bob - 19/5/04 at 10:13 AM

does steve need some calipers for those hubs,i've now got an extra pair spare.

Cup of tea would do it


ned - 19/5/04 at 10:37 AM

there are some used discs and calipers with them, unless he wants some spares

Ned.


James - 19/5/04 at 02:39 PM

With the engine he's planning to fit... does he need brakes?

A 1.1CVH will be so slow he can put his arms in the air to slow it!

Cheers!

James


ned - 19/5/04 at 03:39 PM

and there was me thinking it was called a valencia 1.1!

Ned.


James - 19/5/04 at 04:03 PM

That'd be the one I meant!

Oh well... it's been a long day!

James


trueblue - 19/5/04 at 08:46 PM

A valencia doesn't sound like much but it will do for starters.

Another piece out the garage doing some good.

What clutch for a type 9 has a 6.5 inch diameter?

I know i have seen an outfit that can match the spline in the centre to a type 9 box if i remember right.

Or am I going off at a tangent again?

Hmmmm


Fozzie - 19/5/04 at 09:14 PM

Definately be there!!!!!
John, I gotta mirror if you still want it. Will bring it on Sunday.

ATB fozzie


Jasper - 20/5/04 at 10:53 AM

Depending on how things go tomorrow with the SVA, I may be there in the locost. Should pass no probs this time as I have a full lamda kit installed, but it's whether Brighton DVLA will sort out the paperwork on the spot or not. Here's hoping!


ned - 20/5/04 at 12:48 PM

good luck jasper!

Ned.


bob - 20/5/04 at 06:38 PM

Jason


theconrodkid - 21/5/04 at 02:28 PM

Deckman001 - 21/5/04 at 03:25 PM

Jason


bob - 21/5/04 at 10:34 PM

SVA support vehicle

I like that idea,just hang about at test stations with your drill and a handfull of self tapers.

big box of foam and placy tape too.


Surrey Dave - 22/5/04 at 10:39 AM

I had a horn this morning but I dont think it would have been any use to you!!


theconrodkid - 22/5/04 at 01:06 PM

never know dave,i allways thought you were cute


Surrey Dave - 22/5/04 at 01:33 PM

The car hasn,t been out since Detling so I could be there tomorrow, I'll see if it starts this afternoon..................

I've got a groovy looking Renault 21 radiator electric fan if thats of any use to anyone................


theconrodkid - 22/5/04 at 04:18 PM

will the fan make a noise like a horn if i connect it to the horn switch?


Surrey Dave - 22/5/04 at 05:16 PM

Only if you put a folded fag packet in the blades!!.

Only OLD people would know about this from there cycling days.

Why do you always have to have the last word?


theconrodkid - 22/5/04 at 05:20 PM

cos i do


zetec - 23/5/04 at 05:57 PM

Thanks to all the chaps at Newlands today, enjoyable couple of hours even if the drive was a bit long. Nice to put faces to names. Well worth going along to if you have not been, very good meeting place. Cheers.


bob - 23/5/04 at 06:28 PM

Was nice of you to make the trip,i'm sure we will pop along to your area during the year.

Was good to see everyone,even the misserable caterham owner nearly smiled


James - 24/5/04 at 12:39 AM

Cheers for coming down Zetec- unfortunately I didn't get much of a chance to look at your car.

Good turn out anyway- must have been 15-20 people and 7 cars... remind me again why there's no decent southern kit car show?

James


ned - 24/5/04 at 09:26 AM
