BurArrow Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Thought you all may be interested in my project, I've not worked on a car to this extent before so this will be a voyage of discovery! I've taken on a Burlington Arrow which in my case is based on mostly Herald parts, it is a runner but quite leaky from various points and needs a good overhaul. Work to date Service stuff, oil, filters, coolant including a complete flush of the radiator and new corrected rating thermostat. Front calipers rebuilt as they were totally seized. Rear drums rebuilt, weirdly full of grease on the braking surface no wonder it didn't have any stopping power! New tires and new 14" wire wheel to replace the 15" spare. Rebuilt and redesigned the dashboard in reclaimed Mahogany, including fitting a Tacho! Plumbed up the Oil pressure gauge. New fuel pump and fuel filter, replaced the perished hoses with Ethanol resistant modern hoses. New starter motor and custom cabling. Currently in progress Bodywork boxing modification as it was rubbing, including propshaft replacement That's all for now! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurArrow Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 The new propshaft is in and I could take the car for a spin down to the pub and back! Engine is a little lumpy and just gets louder instead of pulling, so some tinkering to be had I'm sure 😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
