Ex SIL had a Bristol and would cruise fast-ish, everyone who over took on the flat got eaten up on the hills, she loved it. RR -

Evil bay isn't always bad, i got a GT6 block recently with fresh bores at a very good price. Sunbeam spares however have started to go sky wards even for things that should be in the bin. RR -

Just clamp the bar, your going to end up doing it any way. RR -
Thanks chaps i will progress my more robust bottom wishbone box section mounts and try and configure Some rose joints and then see if there is lateral movement and if there is, clamp the bar to stop this whilst keeping the rotating ability. -

Yeah I think it's slighty more than they don't care, in that they're not given an evironment that allows them to. Modern car production cycles are such a hell-for-leather scramble, and the designers are detached enough from the manufacturing and service staff, that there isn't space made for them to value ease of maintenance. That's one of the reasons I like old cars so much actually. When they were being created it was that little bit easier for the manufacturing staff, or a vocal fleet manufacturer to kick up a fuss and have ease of maintenance prioritised. That's caused some nasty compromises to be made over the years, but by and large has made cars that are much more accessible for the amateur to muck around with. -

He's an optimist. Also after 95 quid for a pair of Austin-Healey engine mounts -

Agreed. The number of people advertising totally rotten Mk1 / Mk2 Spitfire shells with the promise "These sell for £20k when restored" always amuses me. I have been watching at least three shiny mk2 Spits advertised for >£18k and they've all been sitting on carandclassic for at least a year. Actual prices paid is south of 10 grand from what I can tell. -

I'm always envious of the cars that overtake or are overtaken by me in the Spit - they get to enjoy the beautiful car from the outside. Maybe your repeat offenders were just enjoying the view
