    FIA Roll Bar

    Hi - If it turns out that it won't swiss tony's car or he does not want it I am also interested. Does it have a 'petty strut'. ? or can it accept one ? Richard Based in sunny Brentwood Essex ! - Well it is at the moment.
  4. Brian I also have a 1989 De Dion car. What is the difference between the FIA bars. I don't want to make the same mistake when looking for second hand. Q. What price new from Caterham? Sorry could not be bothered to look up their site Richard
  5. I fitted my car with a JPE style screen on the same 'line' as the existing full screen. this is about 1-2 cm back from the wiper spindles. Not quite the best position but I wanted the full screen to cover the holes. This seems to work fine. I am only 5' 7" and the car has bench seats and flares but the buffeting only happens above eye brow height. Agree with what has been said before. From the pics it looks as if they are too far back on the scuttle. Richard
  6. When a got my caterham last year it had not been used for about 3 years. The engine was fine once I had it going. Mine is a Vulcan Maxi-flow origionally built to 145 bhp. Built and fitted about 1989. You can search the spec. here http://www.vulcanengines.com/ ..........£1,300+ seems a lot though Richard
  7. Phil I have received permission to spend some money I would still like first refusal on the screen if it is still available. As I said in the last posting I tried several times to e-mail you. Can you please contact me on 01277 822407 Location Brentwood Essex Richard
  8. Phil I Tried again to send you an e-mail Richard K
  9. Phil YHM Re. Fitting etc. Richard REd / Ali + Flares and possibly an Aero 🤔
  10. My sump finally gave up after I grounded the car (yet again) Looking for a replacement but not in a hurry, as the car is about to go away for the winter No TAX after Sept. I am in Brentwood Essex but willing to travel within the South East of England. Any help or advice about a possible repair ? The car is fitted with a 1700 Vulcan engine. Judging by the ground clearance (about 2.5 ins) I don't think it was a 'shallow' sump but if there is one out there with pick up pipes etc. .... Thanks Richard PS. I only pick up / access on weekdays at work

  14. Rich. You Have Mail ! Richard
  15. Dave - You have mail. Richard
  16. I have just bought a seven. It's a 1700cc X flow but the car has no battery. 'Yes I know I haven't heard the engine run but the car alone was worth the money and I trust the person who sold it to me'. What battery do you all recommend. Is the Banner the only way to go or can I purchase one from the local car spares chain. Can someone tell me the specification. amp hours, crank something or other etc. Thanks Richard 'See you on the road in the summer !'
