Thanks Stuart. Much obliged.

Thanks. Does that TRGB stuff simply slot into the existing channels? That’s what I thought I was getting but no! This looks a much simpler idea. Have you or anyone got any experience of it please? I might send my new channels back if this stuff is any good. Thanks for sharing this.

Thanks everyone. Some great advice from you all, which is appreciated. I think I’m sold on the scissor lift concept cast into the slab. I think this will be the best idea. All scissor lifts seem to support the car on the sills, so if I ever need to weld a sill up that isn’t ideal. Is there a scissor lift that gives the option to lift the car by its wheels? Maybe not. I guess I could lift the car and put 4 stands under the wheels then lower the ramp. Would that be possible? Thanks all.

Thanks Mike. The search function on here is poor. But I’ll give it a go. Cheers.

So I’m planning to extend my garage making another 12ft wide bay. I have the option of a pit or a scissor lift. What would you do? I would love a ramp but don’t have the headroom.

When ordering some bits I asked about the window sliders and thought I’d try these lined channels. Has anyone got any advice fitting these? Might wish I’d lined the old ones! They seem a bit long too…

Thanks. I've replaced everything so all new. I think I'll go for the silicone DOT 5 so I don't end up with any paint being stripped!
-
Thanks for the advice. Very useful. Wish me luck!

I'm about to do this soon, and for the clutch. All useful info. above. What fluid should I buy and what are the pros / cons of each type pse? Are the choices 4 or 5? Tnx.

Hi All, After having the summer off, it's now time for me to return to my project and build up the doors. I need to source a few bits but what do I do to repair the felt inside the glass runners? I don't want to buy new metalwork. I didn't strip the doors so I'm curious as to the best order of rebuilding them. I had to get new glass as the originals were badly scratched. Any tips are much appreciated as its a bit of a jigsaw puzzle for me at present! Thanks, Steven

Interesting. I still haven’t had time to sort mine yet…

Hi Ian. Where did you purchase from and how did you get the discount? Thanks.
-
Thanks Ian. I did try searching but that facility on this forum is pretty useless, or I’m doing something wrong!
-
Thanks. I’ll take a look.

I”m overcome with the choice online so looking for recommendations to cover and protect my 4a in the garage. Would like a cover with a soft internal surface including a bit of substance to it to protect against knocks etc. My garage is dry but unheated! TIA.
