Malc, are they the ones that look like saucepans?

I should mention what gave rise to this query. I'd rolled the car out for a bonnetless test drive, and I pulled the handbrake up. There was a modest bang and a jolt in the lever, like something being released. I couldn't tell where it came from, because I only hear in mono. But I'm pretty sure it didn't come from the front: the lever still pulls the cable, and the ratchet works.

When hers...

I cant be bothered to read the entire rubbish this is spouting but it seems to me its just another government ploy to get cars off the road. Put simply any car which fails the emission test at MoT cant legally be on the road so nothing more needs doing.

David, I agree with you that nature will sort itself out. The irony of this is that by pushing EVs the powers that be are causing more e...

I don't subscribe to FB. I think the FEDS know enough about me as it is. The article is a point of view, to which we are all entitled. Mine is that the planet doesn't need " saving" as nature has a way of caring for itself. What the phrase really hides is the human race needs saving but again nature doesn't care.

cheers

Hi All,
For circumstances I will not go into, as too long, I need a late TD/TF bell housing (8" clutch) complete with shaft, arm and fork. I asked on a T-type spares site and had one response from Ed McCord in Wisconsin. While the price seams reasonable, we don't have a cost of shipping yet, purchasing off a stranger on the internet has its dangers. I was just wondering if anybody on here knew ...

Nick,

I have some OEM 1098 round body air filter cans, one has been cut back a bit - but they are in the loft taking up space - any good ?
