Re: CIRCUIT DES REMPARTS ANGOULEME 2022

Wow! Incredible, thanks for sharing!
Very hard to pick any favourite but I need to go for the Ferrari 308 and the DB4. The Alfa GTV from the eighties is a beautiful Beast too.

Re: Fastback's cars.

Sad to see that. A very strange attitude to do such things. Hopefully your neigbours testimony result in a slap in the face!

Re: Manalishis 820 Vitesse Coupe

Thanks Dave, I’ll have a look at those upper links! Unfortunately I don’t have a socket deep enough for the brake reaction bar, That was my plan. I think They might be the wrong way around. Some fiddling to do…

Re: Manalishis 820 Vitesse Coupe

Finally found the time to change the droplinks. It’s so simple and takes so little time. I’m not sure why I haven’t done it until now. They were badly worn so it feels good it’s done But unfortunately it didn’t solve my problem with the knocking when pushing away in first. Pics show from bottom, one...

Re: As if I don’t have too much to do...?

I found an epoxi for alloy, a chemical metal. It’s a powder and a resin that is mixed to a ”porridge” and then applied. Afterwards it can be cut, sawed, drilled etc. Very hard indeed. Excellent product! It’s not beautiful but it works! Could you give us details of the stuff you used? If it works, i...

I think you may lose the Vitesse to your son soon Henrik! :wink: :D
Might very Well be true Dave! He’s soon starting a job for August and has claimed it as his daily transport. A good choice!

Re: As if I don’t have too much to do...?

I’ve had a great day today. First I fixed the windscreen on the coupe and now I’ve been fiddling with the interior of my Austin Seven Ruby. It’s really difficult stuff so I understand why They charge pretty steep prices. The headlining is built from scratch so no where near perfect but it’s ok! The ...

Re: Manalishis 820 Vitesse Coupe

A very small but important update on my coupe. I had a few small Stone chips in my windscreen and decided to have them checked. Small yes but two of them had hairline cracks so I was getting nervous the screen might crack. I went to my local car glass repairman and They could fix them. 30min and 200...

Re: As if I don’t have too much to do...?

Yes, could be done both cheaply and neatly. Obviously it wont be alloy but those grammes are ok.
The base plate is available in steel for pennies and the manufacturing isn’t rocket science.

Re: As if I don’t have too much to do...?

Interesting solution Henrik! I've used similar stuff in the past, usually a twin-syringe type dispenser and rebuilt various broken things. Hopefully it will withstand the heat, vibration and coolant and not give you any problems. :wink: :D Yes it’s a bit of a ”trial and error” but I’ve seen it used...
