Many Thanks Paul that is what I was thinking of doing, or something simular. For the time being I have fitted D rings to where the 5mm heater securing screws are on the bulkhead and shelf. I have changed the 5mm screws for 5 mm stainless bolts. I have then used bungee cords and some foam to fix the jack,handle and wheel brace in front of the heater. when I am back from touring with the car this summer I will fabricate the alli box simular to yours. ( I hadn't thought of over hanging it closer to the distributor, good idea). Many thanks again for your response and photos. Cheers Les

It would be nice to have the space for a tool box like that. But it is also nice to be warm on a dry winters day blat with my toasty heater on. Many Thanks for thje photos what a great job.

Many Thanks for the photos Jonathan, unfortunately I can't fit the tool tube where you have done as I have a DVA power air box intake and filter in that location. What you have done with the jack and wheel spanner is exactly the sort of idea I had. I am thinking of using the existing fixing pionts for the heater. change the screws to 5mm bolts and secure 4 heavy duty "D" rings to them. Reenforcing the bulkhead and the flat surface from underneath with big washers and nylocks. Then using bungee cord in a cross over fasion to fix the jack and anything else in place. I think that will give me quick access without needing any tools to remove it. I will let you know how I get on and take some photos. If you have any observations or concerns about this idea please let me know. Many Thanks again Les

Thanks Stephen, that would be great, I will see if I can fit it anywhere in the engine bay. Many Thanks

I did know a guy at the factory around 2001 who nearly lost his job for calling it that. different times.

It use to be called the Caterham FB at the factory. I will leave you to decide what that stood for! I think I will be able to slip an open tool roll down the back of my seat and use one of the top popers to fix it to. Thanks for your help cheers Les

Many Thanks BigCol. That has given me some ideas, although you seem to have much more engine bay space than you get with a K series.

Thanks Jonathan It would be much appreciated if I could see some photos of what you have done, especially the jack and tool tube. Many Thanks for your reply Les

Has anyone seen any interesting or innovative, ways to store things in the engine bay of a seven? I have a standard series 3 K series engine. I am looking at ways to free space up in the boot, by storing a small selection of tools or the jack, posibly in front of the heater?

I am interested if still available? and what is the price? best regards Les Dean year 2000 R400. mobile 07553 238 667

My wife goes to her first ever meeting and gets her face in print! Great pictures and a great turn out in the sunshine.

Hi, I would be very interested, dependent on cost and security of cars overnight etc. Also as I have just come back from Switzerland please be reminded that you need to pay Swiss road tax to drive on thier motorways. About £40 for the year. I think you need one even if your just there for a few days or passing through. Regards Les

Hi All, As you can see I am looking for the Gold K Series Spark Plug cover that Reads "Caterham Motorsport". Thanks In Advance Les Dean.

I have this for sale if anyone is interested?

I have this MEMS ECU which became available many years ago after and engine upgrade. If any one is interested in it it yours for £100 Rover part number 0810 MKC104152.
