  1. Just thought I would share where I have installed a servo for my brakes Of course this required me to take off my carbs so that I could drill the manifold for a Vacuum take off which is absent on a 948 coupe Its tight in there!
  2. With regard to the clutch you may find that much of the heaviness of the peddle comes from the heavy return spring adjacent to the slave cylinder maybe changing that out might just make things a little easier   maybe enough that a servo may not be needed
  3. Yeah what you say about the lack of designed in seat belts makes sense to me I have previously built a Locost Clubman and the design requirements for seat belt anchorages are a bit more than just putting big washers on the inside of sheet metal. Personally I would be happy to leave her just as she came out form the factory without seat belts but my beautiful wife is very insistent that I fit them if I am going to carry either of our children in the car.
  4. I face a similar issue with my 59 coupe my wife is insistent that I should fit seat belts but the upper anchor point for lap and sash belts is problematic even with a coupe mainly because I don't want to wreck the head lining to weld in an anchor point so I'm thinking of just fitting lap belts which would be a step up from nothing but not as intrusive into the structure of the car. Keep in mind that these cars are hardly designed to be "crash worthy' like a modern car anyway and this old bloke will not be driving like a maniac either. So what do you guys think of just putting lap belts in the front?
