1098 Sprite engine backplate has a crack between two of the big openings (for dynamo and crank). It's machined both sides, and 8 mm thick. Is it weldable? They are unobtainable new as far as I know. Must be quite a few 2nd-hand ones out there if I could track one down. However it would be better to salvage it if poss.

Hi All I hope someone can help me, I have just aquired a D Type replica and Iam looking to repaint it, and with that I hope to make it look more the part with some suitable decals from the era, but I cant find anyone who can supply such things as roundals, numbers, and general period decals. Does anyone know of any companies who provide such things. Many thanks

After 30+ years of abuse my wife's mgb gt has failed its test on rot to the front footwell area and the jacking points. Now I know not to try and cut out the sills and the rail that runs the length of the floor (castle rail??) because the door way sags. I'm planning to fabricate replacement sections for the front and treat the rotten bits a layer at a time. However having taken the wing off with...

I have a MkII and a MkIII available. Neither has an MOT but neither is a basket case either. The MkII (1969) requires door skins (I have these and will throw them in), some patching around the rear offside wheel arch inner, possibly two front floor repair sections and some TLC. The trim is complete but not fantastic. I have had the car for about 12 years and did the majority of the body work...

I need to modify my iron block by MIG welding a nut to the outside - so I can screw something onto it. Am I likely to do any harm? I can't imagine what could happen, but as I've had all he machining done at some expense I thought I should just check first.
