Would anyone be interested in a Mk2 Tansit? I'm thinking the engine in particular may be useful to someone?? 12 seat minibus 1986 (C reg) LWB, Semi hi top, twin wheel, 2.0L (pinto?) with 4 speed plus overdrive gbox. Generally good bodily except for a badly corroded floor under the front passenger seat which exits inside the wheel arch. Mechanically it's very good, the engine runs fine and it...

Intending to kickstart my Minor restoration again, I've just bought a pair of chassis legs and front cross-member which I intend to fit over the Christmas break. I'm not a beginner, but this job is one I've been dreading for a while, so any tips getting the correct alignment would be gratefully received. The car is currently one its side, so access is easy. I'm intending to start with the...

Watching the BBC's "Simply the Best" sports personality of the year I was disgusted to see that the 65 winner of the "BBC Sports Personality" was among the the nomminess and not the 1965 runner up Jim Clark. Clark was a a sportsman par excellence a true gentle man , where as Simpson's performances were drug assisted, the same drugs that were to cause his death less than 2 years later.

Does anyone know if there is a source for late-model Spitfire dashboard templates? My '79 Spit is currently in ice-cold storage, here in Canada, and though the obvious is to remove the dash and use it as a template, I'd rather find a source for an accurate template and save the frozen fingers. Thanks in advance, Mark

Yes, I am serious. I have a 1959 Morris Oxford Series V Farina, MOT'd until March 2004, taxed until March 2004. Ltlle use over the last 12 months, new water pump and battery. Not concours but no serious rust and a very clean and tidy car. I am looking for a Rover P6 preferably a 3500 (I know, some hope!) but I'd settle for a 2200TC. I want to use it fairly quickly, so no basket cases, but I...

I've started looking into the history of my (well dads) old GT6. I managed to track down the previous owner who sold it to my dad over 20 years ago. He told me a story about how he left it out one night without antifreeze and the block cracked. He ended up buying a new old stock block but was told it was for a 1971 car and the part number for that block was different to the late 72 car with the...

This vehicle sold for A£9,450 plus buyers premium of 5% premium. This bringing...
