MG
The Classic Marque

The'62 MKII project car sold for only $6,400, there was no reserve. Toward the end there were only two bidders and for the last half hour of the auction the price did not change. It was surprising that it sold as low as it did.

In fact, looking at the photos, they all need turning clockwise 90deg!!

Both of these pictures turn clockwise 90deg. No idea why they have rotated!

Here are some pictures of my Panhard rod.

OK, many thanks all.

Now I have:

12 (engine size - 1275)
V (vertical / in-line)
588 (block casting)
F (with block casting above / uses alternator)
H (high compression)
255 (production number - so was the 255th ?)

How are we looking ?

Back to the question of springs, another vote for 400 as a good compromise for road and competition, not harsh but a good upgrade.

Oh I see! AI still seemed to get it right though....

I know I'm on a good hill climb run when I can smell rubber burning thanks to the tyres rubbing. It was more common with the previous Yokohama tyres, they gripped better than my current Rain Experts.

I definitely need something to control the back axle, I'd prefer a Watts linkage but will probably go for a panhard rod this winter. Les, do you have any photos, drawings or other details of...

Guy,

Thanks, that all makes sense - I look at mine and worry about the sheet metal.

David,

I can see your idea, I thought the chassis rails were too narrow for the a/r bar.

Some pictures would be great - if you have any ?


Thanks

And they sound weird with the VW power plant
