Yeah, 8 weeks is heavy duty and investing in proper equipment is well-expensive. Aerosols just can't do metallic paint very well (someone told me it was because they don't have enough pressure) although they are fine for sills and door-bottoms which do not show up too much. I think it'd be cheaper i...

Maybe there isn't enough vacuum from the engine if you're 'free-wheeling' down hill Aaaaggghhhh otherwise it'll be the leaky rubber seal in the servo casing?? Fluid level ;-? The brakes were always pretty sharp.

My experience with Morris Minors says it will be the chain.

CBA I can assure you it has only done one genuine lunar distance plus a few dozen miles covered when the speedo cable had broken... ;-0

That was a speedy scrapman - I was going to suggest keeping the solenoid ;-o

He's injecting new life into it which is awesome.

Great point, earth worth checking. Actually, I think it was getting like that when I had the car, so it might be a historic problem! I just let the bulbs fade and fade and then never noticed that they weren't working. I'll pop some bulbs from the roof in the post this week. Keep up the great work.

If all the dashboard lights have gone, maybe its a fuse or two. The Haynes says that number 5 does the instrument lights but there's loads of different fuses for all the switches.... Anyhow, I have some secondhand bulbs if its them - just lerrus know which ones you need.

Sorry I can't help with the window - I've only done that job with a Morris Minor ;-0

Glad the tacho works... stirling work all round.

Awesome - that makes a bit more sense. I've had a nose and it seems that they also masquerade as 105's and 120's and there are a few dozen of them left on the road and at least the same number of the more good-looking 136's.

How's about that then?

According to 'how many left' there are 6 on the road.

Awesome pickup (how many miles did you say?) - hope the journey back went OK and that the door glass replacement goes well. Awesome to see the 1.4 again!!

Hello CBA, of course you can pick them up tomorrow if you really want to do the journey!! Don't overdo it though!!!! If I'm out, I'll just leave the door and other bits somewhere you can pick them up easily. If you can get to me before 3 pm the door will be in leafy Surbiton.... I'll PM my mobile now.

Man, how's about Tom Butterworth in Preston.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CLASSIC-VOLVO-340-360-HEADLIGHTS-TAILLIGHTS-ALL-MODELS-/370999642711?pt=UK_Cars_Parts_Vehicles_Other_Vehicle_Parts_Accessories_ET&hash=item56614d4a57 ... failing that how's about.... http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k163/bogb...
