  1. I'm not sure if I can call this progress, Ellie is looking decidedly dismembered at the moment.

    There are plenty of videos on YouTube showing how others have done theirs, watch more than one. Keep the tub bolted to the chassis, brace the door apertures & diagonal bracing across the tub too. Make sure the bracing doesn't interfere with the doors so that you can try the door before welding anything.
  3. Does anyone in the Oxfordshire area have a hub puller I can borrow/hire/buy?
  4. You're further ahead than me, I'm in the process of stripping down my car. Every mechanical component of my Spitfire needs my attention. I also decided the beginning of October isn't a tight enough deadline so I've entered Border Raiders...
  5. It looks like Tim has had a bit of a mishap, can someone help him get his car the right way up?
  6. Having worked for a recovery company in the 90s & seeing far too much claret spread throughout interiors of crashed cars I would strongly advise getting seat belts fitted.
  7. It would be great to see it returned to its original colour of Valencia Blue, it must have looked quite something with the light tan leather interior. Much like @yorkshire_spam If only I had the space/time/money
  8. That would make a great RBRR/10CR car, hopefully someone with the time & space snaps it up & gets it up & running again.
  9. And with the right bits it would be very discrete & waterproof for when caught out by the wonderful British weather 😀
  10. I've been toying with the idea of a motorbike one like this https://amzn.eu/d/b8SP7RY I'm not sure if I'd go for a cheap Chinese one from Amazon but I like the idea of having tiny cameras hard wired in.
  11. The answer to the mystery of the under 800cc TR7
  12. I will have a 3 syncro box available soon, I'm not quite in Lancashire, I'm in Oxfordshire.
  13. Without seeing the car it's difficult to tell what's needed. The doors and bonnet are adjustable and the shut lines can be improved. What part of the country are you? There's probably someone in one of the groups nearby that can have a look for you. Check the groups and see if there's one nearby.
  14. I can't say about the coffee - I'm a tea drinker, but I would have to agree Wendy's biscuits went down well 😋
  15. Mine is sitting about the same as yours at the moment, I done a swing spring conversion about a year ago and it's still not settled. I'm going to try a lowering block. Hopefully I'll get one from Stoneleigh, it's on my very long shopping list...
  16. I've still got to get confirmation & details from my prospective co-driver.
  17. I'm picking up my diff & overdrive from Mike Papworth at Stoneleigh on Sunday.
  18. Scraped in with the last 2 figure number. Please be kind to entry number 99, the team will be RBRR virgins. Now to replace the gearbox, propshaft, diff, brakes, clutch, clutch hydraulics, shocks etc...
