Re: Looking to buy a new distributor cap and rotor arm

Thanks for trying to help me out Mark. :good: Definitely no part number on the rotor arm like I said and although I've had another look at the dissy in daylight I couldn't see one on it either. The rotor arm you linked to looks exactly like the one I took off so will get that ordered asap. As for ...

Re: Looking to buy a new distributor cap and rotor arm

Hi Joost, nice to see you're still around. :beers: I have already looked for part numbers on the ones I've got and too my surprise I couldn't find any on either the cap or the arm. Like you I'd have expected there to be something somewhere. Seeing your comment though made me wonder if I could ...

Looking to buy a new distributor cap and rotor arm

Re: Ian Croucher - ianaudia4

Apologies for being late to contribute, but I only just picked up the email over the weekend and felt I just had to come onto the forum and mark my respects for a great, great man who will be sadly missed. When I first joined the Register Ian was one of the first people to welcome me on board and I ...

Re: Project Lily - Preservation Through Modification!

How did you initially take the rust away from under the bonnet? Wire brush on the drill and just steady away until it was all gone. :good: Then some rust eater etc before applying primer etc as you would any body repair. Bear in mind the pucka replacement panels are no longer available ... I must ...

Re: bonnet glue?

I know you've said you're not bothered about replacing it, but a point to bear in mind for anyone else thinking of removing their crumbly old soundproofing ... it seems those replacement kits it are not available now. :crying:

Just glad I got mine when I did.
