Local help needed
#1
We are in the middle of a strip and build on our 1937 Ruby; in five years this is the first time we have had to do any real work. We have taken out the engine/gearbox and stripped down the head and block and removed the flywheeel. We have ordered lots of new parts but need some machining help before we can begin to put it all back together.

We now need to find someone hopefully local to Bristol who can help with the following:

1. Remove old and rivet on new clutch pads (all parts supplied).
2. Replace all exhaust studs as two failed during strip (can get parts if required).
3. Fit side water repair kit (supplied) and new studs (can supply if required).

At the moment the flywheel is considered serviceable but if that can also be replaced I would maybe look to get a new ring and get it done at the same time.

Any help would be greatfully recieved, as this is the first time working on the Ruby in any depth.
