  1. You can find the cf bow tube protector on the caterham website if this is what you are referring to £188 a pair
  2. Chased by a police car.......... and it wasn't me, but the police car was at speed with lights flashing and about 1/4 mile behind.
  3. Have a look at the Caterham parts website in the clearance section they have a R300/400 plenum stay at £22 is this what your looking for? you can ask a question on the website as well to confirm suitability.
  4. Julian, Sevens and Classics have a set for sale at the moment in the parts and services section for £30
  5. How much is the redline one?
  6. That was me! Aston DBS and BMW touring returning from a 4 day blat through Wales and taking the scenic route home to Bucks Thanks for spotting me
  7. I assume from the text these are wanted rather than for sale...... You might want to mention that in the description.
  8. I was out with the family in the "dog" car other wise would have made more of a fuss. You followed us for a mile or so over to Cookham
  9. Derek, get your son to fit two separate linked tanks and fit the bog into the boot, keeping the rim flush with the cover, discharge onto the road (like BR used to do) that way if you get caught short in Scotland miles from no where you can just sit on the back of the car, and nobody will know.
  10. By a strange coincidence, I've just been watching chasing classic cars and Wayne Carini just fixed a leaking Cobra fuel tank with JB Weld resin, that was the product I used.
  11. Derek, that's a handy son to have, I think my holes were caused by contact between steel and ally, where the tank sits on the chassis. Assuming you fabricate the new tank in ally, make sure you isolate the contact points. I used the black sticky back foam used under the bonnet. Good luck
  12. Derek, this was my first maintenance job on my SV. pinholes in the underside of the fuel tank, probably from contact with the steel angles. drained most of the fuel and then lifted it out of the boot ( remove the roll bar and boot floor first, I didn't remove the roll bar and you can learn by my mistake!) i repaired the tank with a fuel safe resin as suggested on blatchat, and that was 4 years ago with no further problems i can probably find the make I used if you need further advice, let me know.
  13. Dave, pleasure to meet you earlier, thanks for the advice and parts.
  14. Dave, I would also like a set, assuming any are left, not quite sure why, but have this dream of building a dry sumped engine that uses original parts.
  15. Tom, i gave up waiting for a reply and bought one last night from Sevens and Clasics. Hopefully you will find another buyer.
  16. Tom, I had almost given up on you, thanks for getting back with a response, did you see my message offering £60?
  17. This should be fascinating, please keep the photos flowing, I've never seen a 21 naked and am looking forward to this.
  18. Dave, I would be very pleased to take this off you, would it be difficult to fix straps to it ( presumably a trimmer could sort it out as my stitching skills are not very good)
  19. Is this a half hood and if so, for what type of SV roll bar, as soft bits for 7s have several types, which suggests one won't fit the other,

    SOLD

    I believe the SV versions are bigger so will pass thank you anyway
  21. D Jones

    SOLD

    Fi mac, what version are these for s3 or s5?

    1.8 power

    p.mole, fantastic information, you have completed the process that I have started, with results that I would be very happy with. Could you list out the changes you made to the stock engine as they appear to be extensive and I would like to make sure I have allowed sufficient funds! I currently have a vvc head which I am flowing, Piper vvc blanking kit, Piper verniers, I need to purchase the Piper (285H) vvc cam kit which removes the vvc mechanism. I will also go for the hydraulic cam version, but would appreciate advice from anyone with greater knowledge and my logic is that I only need the car for fast road use.
