The Classic Marque

I've been watching it but overall thinks it's poor as so much that happens isn't shown. I was looking for comments about the Alfasud episode and came across this thread https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing//topic.asp?h=0&f=204&t=2097298&d=16399.11242 . Comments by 'Darren C' on the next page onwards fill in much about the show as he is apparently the engineer friend helping out with personal knowle...

when running through the model history they showed an "early frogeye" - it had wind up windows!

Hello Larry,
If you seat is comfortable enough I suggest installing wooden risers under the mount rails at he bottom of the seat. No upholstery to deal with.

Hi My YT 4319 has amps on it... The range of the meter is 20 amps _ and +

I'm glad your mum had a good outcome Willy. That you resisted having a go at that surgeon, must make you the saint of patience. I guess he meant well, but needs a sharp lesson in how to deal with vulnerable people.

I see both sides. It may work, it may not. Personally, I think if there's a chance of a good result in an otherwise pretty healthy old person, then go ahead with treatment/surg...

I need to add about an inch of foam padding to the drivers seat on my 1954 TF. My plan is to remove the bottom staples holding the leather cover and then inserting the foam pad. Sounds simple enough but does anyone have an thoughts or suggestions before I get into something that I will regret?

Trev - I'm not so sure about not considering surgery/treatment for the elderly-
Yes unfortunately there are cases like with your Mum that in hindsight she may have been better off without but it could have been a success as well.
My Mum broke her leg in her late 80's, it healed up ok, then in her early/mid 90's broke the other one right up at the hip joint. A surgeon with the worst bedsid...

Colyn and friends, we completed the installation of the new fan motor today. We confirmed that the motor runs equally well in both directions that changing directions is simply a matter of reversing the wires. The motor sold by Moss appears to be a good motor but it is not the same as the original. It's a bit linger but does just barely fit between the heater box and the firewall.
Also, i...

When I fitted the MGB fan motor to my MGA unit heater, I had read on MGA Guru that the new ones supplied by Moss would run in reverse if you simply reversed the wires. Something to do with it having a permanent magnet field.

So, when I got mine from them, I checked to see if this was actually the case and it was, reversing the wires did reverse the rotation of the motor. It runs equal...

I have the wrong ammeter in my YT. The current one has no window in it for illumination. So, it is dark at all times.

I am able to get a replacement ammeter, but have a question as to which one is correct. One has Amps written on the face, and another has Amperes written on the face. I want to put a proper one in place.

Anyone have the answer?
