I am getting close to shipping the 2-seater to the UK for the summer rally and it will need an MoT as soon as it clears customs. It has the original TF 201 lamp on the number plate on the right side of thwe tail and I am planning to fit a pair of Wilcot rear/number plate lamps under the tail. These ...

The date for the Green Man, Thriplow meet has been put back one week - to Sunday 29th April.

Well that sort of worked - it provided a link to click which is almost as good as putting the photos direct in the post - specially if you have multiple pics.

Looking forward to seeing some pics of the Minor.

Best regards,

Ian

Does anyone have set of SV front brake pulley gear which could be used as patterns to make a new batch? They look like this: http://www.vintageminor.co.uk/Forumpix/Brakes.jpg (On the earlier SV cars, the chassis braket was smaller, but I do have a pattern for this early nracket, but not the one show...

Just a reminder - this car goes to auction next Saturday.

Still looking for one! My tourer will be immobile in the spring without one. I would take a complete DS4 or D41 distributor if anyone has one.

I have a chap in Sweden asking me if I know where he can get a head gasket for his SV Minor. I don't know! Can anyone advise?
