Thanks for taking the time mate.

That's the ph1 all stripped and ready to get collected. (if anyone wants anything off the car in this picture just holla) Fuel tank was an utter basterd to get out due to a captive nut no longer staying captive (story of my life with this ph1) Still need to remove the fuel pump but the big...

Aye it's becoming a common thing now Yeah exactly that, list of parts is ever growing...

Well went down to Toms unit last night to view the 182 shell.. and what can I say, it's absolutely mint! Grabed a few photos as I was walking around, attention to detail is amazing, the interior was a bit dusty but the spray job was really good. The rear loom is all custom with a junction...

had this when I was debating it, new shell comes with a heated screen and welded up firewall, so we'll see...

Yeah fair enough, I wanted slider on both but that's just personal preference. Yep, bonded around the seal, or rivet underneath the seal, then put the seal over the top of the rivet etc etc.

and glad to hear it's staying mate! I should have my hydro and bias valve plumbed into the new shell end of next week so will keep you updated with pictures.

Yeah that's not a bad price at all! as you said 5 I'm guessing you mean rear window aswelll?

Im planning on totally relocating the barel to the dash, put the key fob in the decoder ring and tape it there, then hide away in the dash. So in turn i guess thats removing the steering lock, as no barrel no steering lock.. On the switches front - I'm asking around for some wiring diagrams.

That would be amazing.

Have you got a wiring diagram?!

Sorry to bump this: but did you ever get any information for this?

Yeah it certainly is although it was fun to do really, apart form the sound deadening... Aye its a fantastic shell ticks all the boxes for me really, apart from having to get the steering column welded. but thats minor. So just need to confirm a price and a delivery time for it really :)

Yep the shell isn't bought as of yet, just hoping he doesn't turn around and say its not for sale! haha :( Yeahh like to get things done! amazing how much easer it is to remove the engine without any of the pas pipes in the way etc

Thought I'd start this post with some p**n. Got this ready to go on the new shell, while I had a modified scenic shifter before, I just always looked at getting a PMS one so bit the bullet. Can't wait to get this fitted. Plans are moving forward with the new shell - just need to confirm a...

Hey mate, ph1 looks brilliant - got ny information on how you wired up the ignition and field pump to that switch? and have you still kept the ignition on the key?

Firstly I'm surprised I didn't get a lot of people calling me a t**t from the previous update... either you guys expect it from or you cba to reply... Some big updates to come, and I mean big, but very sad. I have received a few of my orders this week: -Copper piping + unions -Handheld brake...

ahh right ok, not to worry. thanks for the link.

Can't find it bud, I'm on tapatalk so usually a mission - don't suppose you've got a cage for sale? did see you advertised one with no replies?! I'm guessing it is

Yep he did say he bought them off you, and yep also to confirm that the thread striped when he tried to remove it. thats interesting! Do you know how much these callipers have been machined by? (if you had them machined that is)

Well on this update, I hang my head in shame. I really do. Shame and most of all embarrassment. I don't know why I'm telling the Internet this, but I feel like you guys should know my absolute failure. So I got home from work excited seeing a parcel there waiting for me Woo lightweight...

As above, need to know the size as the thread is striped and i need to repair it. i believe they're m10x1.0 but need a confirmation on this :) Thanks in advanced

Thanks for your input Tony, I will make sure I keep the compensator valve, yeah mines a screw dial one, so may make up two lines, one including and one bypassing. yeeep, easily done... [emoji50]

ahh reet, i'll keep it in then! thanks again Mark

yep, that's what I'm thinking! yep i thought I'd had fucked it up, but then yeah as you said you can't really go wrong as they sized to fit in the ports. hey ho - brake lines through the car with a bias valve looks good too

Thanks mate, I'm glad to hear that you're still interested! fo sho

Having a bit of a mare choosing picture, but yep this is the finished product. Pull cord didn't come with a bracket to connect it to the dash, so chopped up the frame that holds those 6 cd changers, always kept a lot of bits and spares as there's always a chance I will use them again.

Few little updates again (Sorry common boring start to my updates) Removed the heater box ready for the 1.2 heater without air con. Chopped up the standard ac unit to see if I could bodge it to fit, but there was no easy way, and the 1.2 box is pretty cheap Started fitting the battery...

M ine isn't a ph1 master cylinder anymore, it's a 172 cup MC which has the 4 ports. But yes i did wonder weather I maybe needing to go to a 197 MC, I will test that and rectify when/if it is a problem :)

Yeah nope not exceptionally well as they were cold ds3000s, so probs around 300-320... I haven't got the rod mate, I asked a question ages ago whether I needed a rod, which you answered no too. I used to have the spring but I removed it, to see if it would make an effect to what position the...
