Thanks to Mike Tebbett for spotting this one - 1932 season LWB. Worth GBP 100 just for the instrument panel!

This is new member Martin Croston's 2-seater - see the VMR home page, entry dated 20/11/06. He's having to seel it because he is moving abroad.

Desperately needed for the Semi-sports - the short type fitted to DS4 and D41. Can anyone help?

TIA,

Ian

Folks, Just a quick line to kick off the thread. 27th to 29th July, Milton Abbas, Dorset. The Rally website will go 'live' at the end of January. In the meantime, I have located two fine hotels - each with about ten rooms available, and have block booked them both for the weekend. Our weekend coinci...

Glen, The Minor 3-spoke wheel has the centre boss and arms cast as one piece, so I don't think it would be suitable without modification.

To jump start the Forum after the Christmas break, Roger Lucke and I are preparing a 'definitive' article on Minor dynamos and third brush electrickery for M 127 - explaining how they work, what to do when they go wrong and how to test them - in and out of the car. If anyone has any relevant input -...

And vice versa M Type/Minor blocks can be fitted to J Types, which is where a lot of Minor blocks end up. I think the only difference is the stud diameters.

A few pics from the last couple of years - note in pic 2 the snow piled up last spring (and it's back again already!), just as the engine was being installed. Pic 4 was taken moments after the first firing up this spring. The final pic was taken a couple of weeks ago on the second run up the lane. h...

Here’s a question that has crossed my mind many times while in the workshop, but I have never come up with a completely satisfactory answer one way or the other. So you are in the workshop restoring your car. You have two similar components to select from – one which came off your car and the other ...

Trials are being conducted with a view to releasing the VMR Magazine online through the website, in addition to the hard copies and CD copies already available. The benefit to the reader of being able to download the Magazine are that it would be instantly available upon release, could be read on yo...

Just spoke to the VSCC and had to move the date from Saturday 5th July to Saturday 12th July because of a clash with Shelsley on the 5th. So now trying to get the CSMA to shift the Proms concert at Sudeley Castle from the 5th to the 12th so we can meet at the Castle in the evening - concert, battle ...
