Re: Quay to my Car - Poole 3rd July (Open topped sports cars

Shame it's only the 1 again this year, unfortunately I'm at a party that night and running a car treasure hunt on the 4th.

Re: MGLive tickets on sale

That's fine a can arrange some poles and orange tape to mark an area off. Yes it was a little cramped in the end last year and with the F/TF becoming ever more popular we will need a bigger space soon.

Re: Looks worth saving...

Trust me, I never planned on selling it but have an F and TF and am no longer earning enough to justify 2, My Abingdon is only up for sale as I don't think it's fair to out 400 miles a week on a special car

Re: changing oil rail without breaking hg seal

I would agree if the head bolts are being removed the integratiy of the gasket has been compromised and will need replacing as the pressure would be released. I also would replace all the bolts as mentioned above just for sanity as I wouldn't have a way to test to within the tolerances.

Re: Looks worth saving...

Well after saving one and getting it up and running and on the road I will tell you don't bother no one is actually interested in buying these cars. It's a Special Edition but that doesn't actually matter when it comes to selling save yourself the hassle and buy something else.

Re: Harnesses and no cage..

They are safety device roll hoops which were structurally tested but never MSA approved as far as I know. They were fitted to cheetah/panthers but the cup cars had a full Approved Cage.

Re: Harnesses and no cage..

Just zoomed right in and see you have added a T-bar piece to the upright to add strength which will help but still can't see this 1 feature looking right.

A lot for other vehicles are and the safety devices cage will be. Normally I really enjoy your work DD and hate to pick fault but the outer uprights will collapse under a load you have added an unnecessary week point into the hoops. I can see why as the seat belts will be mounted in that area but fe...
