Z320 Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Had a gearbox/clutch workshop with two friends about our new project: a DIY hydraulic clutch release bearing for TR4A-TR6 for small money. We are on a very good way, I'm thinking about a thread about that if there is any interest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PodOne Posted March 4, 2019 Report Share Posted March 4, 2019 Bit of patching and panel making on Sat. The drivers side bulkhead panel had rot and a crack and needed a patch right along its length so the original filler panel from the wheel arch was toast so I remade out of 18 gauge thicker than the original which was thinned by rust. Plan to do the other side after fixing the whole and replacing the battery tray just can't yet decide where to cut its mainly the rear seam and bottom that is really thin.

Waldi Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 Hi Steve, it takes guts to switch that machine on and push in on your bonnet:) Waldi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Forey Posted March 6, 2019 Report Share Posted March 6, 2019 I agree, be very careful on the curves. Polishing machines can go through paint really quickly on a sharp convex curve, don't ask me how I know. Mick Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chris59 Posted March 10, 2019 Report Share Posted March 10, 2019 Solved an intermittent fault on one of my TVRs, a V8 with fuel injection. Took me centuries to find that a new temperature sensor was the culprit…... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steves_TR6 Posted March 11, 2019 Report Share Posted March 11, 2019 And to finish off I cleaned and sealed the old but serviceable vinyl hood with Renovo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
