That seems a lifetime ago Bob. Maybe I'll be able to run another one later in the year.

Eric appears in a recent screening of BBC Click at about 13 minutes in. We’re outside TNMoC’s entrance.

Thanks folks. 115 miles done on DiD.
The museum hopes to reopen on 28 May so if you want an interesting day out you can book a slot online at tnmoc.org

Oakham market place.

It’s tightened by raising the centre bar of the H frame. That’s done by moving the nuts at the rear where the H frame meets the backlight. Fiddly unless you have a pair of Roger’s (tubular) nuts in which case it’s a breeze.

Mine uses a thyristor to latch the overdrive on until you pass through neutral and the thyristor turns off. No moving parts. Not as fully functional as some but it avoids accidentally bogging down.

+1 for Peter Burgess’ work.

From experience (admittedly limited), in practice the paper clip will bend before it sets the pins. You might get lucky with a sloppy lock but only if your tensioning is spot on. A pick set is cheap.

Get a cheap lock pick set from eBay or Amazon. Tumbler locks are quite easy. I recently needed to open a filing cabinet and did it in under a minute.

Glad it worked out for you Ian.

Alternatively and avoiding removing the ammeter from the dash, get yourself a small neodymium magnet and attach it to the back of the instrument panel near the meter. Move it around until the needle is centred. Get a cup of tea.
It's not guaranteed to work but it did for me on my TR6.

WOW Pete, thats a monster sensor, I'm sure?? the ones I have bought are less than half the size.
Someone once said that size isn't important.

And a simple bracket picks up on one of the bumper iron fixings.

Hi Pete,
that is interesting. Are the faces of the senors flush with the sticky out bits at the back of the car (bumper/over riders)?

Thusly.

with that in mind, I was thinking of fitting the rear units in the holes that the bumper irons would normally go through.
At the front I was going to fit them in the grill, there are 2 holes where the "stay bracket" would normally go, from the inner wings to the overriders.
we shall see???????????
I have them at the rear in the bumper iron apertures.

Can you post a picture of the dashcam?

I was going to ask why Sue bought you a battlefield communications system, albeit now obsolete - but I’ll just get me coat.
-
I refurbished the internals. The only consequence is that they lock and unlock in the “wrong” sense but you get used to that.

Who was it who said “time is what stops everything happening at once”?

I didn’t fancy the repro handles so I swapped mine side for side so the unblemished chrome is at the top.
-
I fitted Danbury carpets to my 4A around that time. They’ve been fine.
-
The metal stiffeners in my repro hood (Surrey top actually but the same issue) were too thick to go fully under the screen capping. I replaced them with modellers brass strip and it’s now a really good fit and doesn’t come out at any speed.

Ask Alasdair at CDD if you like but as far as I’m aware they’re not serviceable (in normal use). There are no grease nipples. I’ve never done mine and they’ve been on for a couple of years.
