A bunch of us are taking our vintage vehicles to a 'shoot' in Brighton in just over a week's time. I'm after another 5 pre-1935 original cars any make, from the Brighton area. Contact via cynicaldoc7@gmail.com for full details. Andy Lowe kindly helped out the last time and the film is 'The Vindication Swim'.

Due the Forum difficulties of the last week or so,I have been shut out of the Forum. But now miraculously, no doubt due to hard work by The Management,I am back in. Thank you.
I wanted to add to the thread of recently about LHD German Nippys. I know of such a car nr. Berlin. It is a genuine German car and has been in my friend,s garage for at least 30years. It needs work. If the original searcher for such a car will not act me I will provide more info.

duff CFR2 cutout box and broken 3 speed ball change |

for experimentation:
has anyone got a broken/tatty CFR2 cutout box. dont need resistance or cutout working. or the box to be complete, or with lid!
Also, I don't want to destroy a complete (late/ball) 3 speed gearstick for a trial remote-change.
Has anyone got a broken re-useable selector stub, or indeed has anyone remanufactured the selector ball and stub piece?

Brake cable diameter |

What was the original diameter of a brake cable? The new cables are generally to big for the front compensator and do not move through nicely.

Rear axle flanges |

Continuing my saga of the back axle....
I set about re- adjusting the brakes ( a straightforward luxury with hydraulics!)and noticed that he offside outer hub (with its new half shaft key and properly tightened nut!) flange was not hard up against the inner flange when the clamping force of the wheel nuts was relaxed! In fact a gap of about 1/16" could be seen! The inner flange could be moved in & out! Once wheel nuts/countersunk screws etc are tightened of course this inner flange is tight against the outer....the assembly had not moved at all after a brisk 15 mile run. Nor does the wheel appear to be loose.
The other side is snug one half up to the other. No untoward noises, no rattles.....
Any comments.....I don't like it Captain Mainwaring. .....

Making an Ulster Style Screen - Any Advice |

Hi,
I’ve been thinking of replacing the rather basic aero screens on my Ulsteroid with an original style folding screen which I hope to make myself in order to keep the cost down.
Before I retired I worked in engineering so should have the skills to do this but unfortunately I now only have hand tools plus a bench drill so any other machining would have to be farmed out which would quickly increase the cost.
Before I get too involved I wondered if anyone on here had actually made a screen themselves and if there was any advice on how practical it would be without access to a machine shop.
John.
