Are you planning on using the std master cylinder or go peugeot 406 For down pipe clearance? Going 3" exhaust?

@Ant1 You could try this. Before waxoyl. Not used it myself but dinitrol products are good. Not cheap but worth a try. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/321015246965

That's what I would do. It'll only get worse if you don't treat it.

It doesn't look to bad, I wouldn't have thought you'd be able to hole it. If you've removed the interior panel completely see if you can clean it up a little, pour in some kurust maybe Jack up the back of the car or go for a short drive. Let I'd dry for a few days then get some dinitrol waxoyl...

Had a look at my wife's tonight after finding mine were a little rotten. Lou's ph1 and inside the sill. Waxoyled. I'll be giving it some more this year!

I'm a little further south but I'll keep an eye out.

I Bought a 197 cup in nimbus for a steal last October. Can't say I've driven it much apart from the journey home. Have a megane turbo conversion i'm putting together at the minute. Can't wait!

Thanks I did put pics on the post but didn't hear anything.

Any body have any ideas as to how much the I.d leather is worth in my 197? It's in very good condition, just I fancy some recaro's. It also has leather door panels. Pics from the ad but I only drove it home and hasn't been used as of yet.

Cars are looking great as always. Might be worth trying a hot air gun on the old console. @mossyv6 Apparently if you heat the plastic gently with a hot air gun it restores the grain in the plastic? I personally have never done it but a trimmer who used to be near me before I moved tried it and...

Looks great. You should be able to get some made up at your local car paint supplier. Ours will mix and put it into aerosols for us.

My Boss just sold his 260, it had a supercharged engine fitted though. He'd had it from new. It was this colour.

The best thing is to send it away and have it Aqua Blasted. Comes up like new.

Just be careful what hose you use as brake fluid can bleed through, I'm not sure why but fuel line isn't suitable. It seems ok but doesn't last. Best thing to do is buy a couple of front brake hoses and cut the ends off.

Nice to see it from the beginning to the track! Great work!

Thanks again, I'll just try and swap my 197 one over then, once I get all the meg gear fitted. Does your storm run lsd?

Thanks Paul, do you think the 197 knob would fit?

How did you remove it Paul? And have you got a part no. The meg stick I've got for my 197 is torn.

Looking good Dan, glad It's all coming together. I've gone for the 51mm pipe kit, same as Matt.

Have you tried cleaning the connections in the relay sockets? Sometimes It's more the connection than the relay.

Had the same issues but it was the black relays. So was going to suggest it. When I had the issue a new battery was suggested but Can't remember why? Have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting the battery? Long shot but worth a try!

Sounds like a good night. I Should be able to make it. I've got to take my Daughter there in December for a party.

At my work it's £50/hour + vat I used to work for myself at £40. Here's a mk1 Lotus Cortina rear arch. Completely butt welded in, no overlapping.

The Aston would take around 60 hours to do the inner, outer sills and the rear radius arm area. On one side. An outer arch to do it nicely takes about 6 hours. You have to take your time to weld it in. The sill could be done replaced in a day. So it just depends on hourly rates. You could...

Anything is fixable! I've repaired a hell of a lot worse.

Just rested Paul. Be easier to paint before it's bonded. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Can't wait to get my sprint spoiler fitted. Thanks @mossyv6 Took a couple of pics in the dark but I think it's going to have to go nimbus. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

I've been thinking the same, Always had turbo cars until my ph1. I'm not keen on the 225/r26. So my plans have changed and bought myself a 197 cup last week, I also have the meg 225 engine and box, and a whole load of other bits including a ttv lightweight flywheel and r26r clutch. So more...

Can't wait to get started on mine Thanks for all the Help. @Matt555
