Re: Parts wanted for 1934 Minor Maddox special
Also needed is a pair of front floor board angled steel brackets if anyone has any? Mine are completely absent.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Ian,
Are these angle brackets the same as the cammy ones - part Nos .........?

Yes, I believe they are, Simon.

Ian,
Misunderstood Roger Birds email about cylinder head thickness - his is 41 mm thick so similar to Ian Harris's. Was your head/ combustion chambers copper plated ?
The previous reference to cylinders 2 & 3 referred to the block as the exhaust valves are adjacent and need the heat to be transferred away as quickly as possible. The cleaner to get rid of the limescale here is Fernox DS [kettle and iron cleaner].
Simon
PS Do you want me to search for a replacement head for you.

Ian,
The cleaner should have been Fernox DS3.
Ronald Hogg is having a clean out and may have the floor brackets , according to Harry Edwards manual are the same for SV & OHC.

Re: Parts wanted for 1934 Minor Maddox special
Almost certainly going to Beaulieu next week end, do you want me to hunt for anything. What? and price limit.
Re: Parts wanted for 1934 Minor Maddox special
I could do with a 6V SU fuel pump at a reasonable price. Unless anyone else can supply?
Re: Parts wanted for 1934 Minor Maddox special
6V SU pump. Not now going to Beaulieu. May I humbly suggest that you buy a new pump from Burlen with alloy base [ £100 + VAT] or brass base [£200 +VAT] as any s/hand 6V pump, not particularly common, would need to be refurbished with at least a new diaphragm to cope with modern fuel [refurb kit £30 + VAT]. Would the price be negotiable !!
Re: Parts wanted for 1934 Minor Maddox special
Great - good plan, thanks.

If you bid and win SU. If you have it sent to me at Flat 2, Old Museum Court. Museum Hill. Haslemere. GU272JR. I can check it over,
report back and refurbish if you would like.

Simon, the brass one is being sold by 'Fairorgan', which I suspect is Nick Williams. I have e-mailed him
Re: Parts wanted for 1934 Minor Maddox special
The pump I was referring to was sold last night by a chap in Sandhurst village.
