  1. Yesterday
  2. Sold the Range just before covid hit along with the garage full of spares. My sister is the Alfa nut and my brother is a BMW nut, 1602''s, 2002's and a stunning Batmobile which I think he sold not so long ago. He runs several cars I think in the masters series and fair bit in europe https://laranca.com/historic-race-preparation-team/
  3. You can say that again Dunk, it's spread over the day to make it less of a chore if it's persisting down. Do you still have that lovely restored Range Rover?Was it your sister who had the historic racing Alfa?

  5. Cheers Chris, all the best to you in your semi retirement. I bet feeding time is fun at your place
  6. Thanks Dunk! Good to see you are still around on here, all the best.
  7. I think the older members like us were just lucky to have them and enjoy them before prices went crazy for these things. I wouldn’t pay some of the prices people are asking for them, especially when you see some NA’s up for £20/£25k
  8. Hi all Having an issue where the small light under the odometer is staying on, after some reading I've checked the tabs on my door catches which both are still in tact and operate the dome light fine so it seems to be a problem specifically with the door warning light, the light between the Speedo and rev counter stays on while ignition is on but does turn off when the key is removed however the door light under the odometer is on constantly even after keys out and doors locked. I've taken out the bulb for now to save the battery but starting to think it might be something to do with the bonnet or boot.
  9. Last week
  10. These are still for sale and I would really appreciate the corner of my garage back so open to sensible offers.
  11. Radiator is back in , plenty still to do . Looking back …..if anyone thinks a total respray is easy …..think again ,it’s a massive amount of work ! I did mine as I had a small hole on one sill and a tiny amount of bubbling on the roof - both could have been sorted in a couple of days ! But there could have been more ……there wasn’t ! would I do it again ? no , use any and all inspection means ,bore scopes and access all areas - way way easier and cheaper ! Then add corrosion inhibitor . just getting new seals ,clips ,rubbers ,bolts , bungs ,and so on is a nightmare .
  12. Hi, I am looking for a pair of OEM door cards in good condition. Please PM me if you have something available. Thank you very much in advance and best regards, Herb
  13. Hola hermano just watched the cbs youtube video car is looking amazing man congrats
  14. looking for rear seats for a mkiv supra both upper and lower bench please i'm located in scotland
  15. I've bought one of those really cheap kits for travel around Europe, it also has breathalysers; a requirement these days in France. I have routed the tour to avoid all toll roads on the Garmin DriveSmart 66 I've just bought, other than the Grossglockner High Alpine Road in Austria. The Garmin basecamp route planner software isn't particularly user friendly but I have mapped out the planned route totalling 3,000 miles on my PC and load it onto the Garmin. I hadn't read about headlights on being mandatory in Switzerland. Last time I took the car to Germany it was peak Summer so I didn't bother with beam deflectors as I never ran in anything other than daylight. I suppose I should fit those this time if daytime headlight on running is required. The once I got a big brown bloom flash was in the Netherlands I never received anything from that so hopefully it'll be a fine free tour and that the Supra, that has never missed a beat doesn't miss a beat.
  16. Wanted boot glass. Let me know what you have and price. Thanks Andy
  17. I worked in Basel ,for a time and drove my soarer there about 20 times - you need to carry a warning triangle , spare bulb box , dayglo tabard or jacket , on entering the country you need a vignette to use any main roads , around £40 as I remember - they have a lane you pull into as you cross the border to buy one . They also drive with headlights on at all times . The cops there appear to have nothing to do and will pull you over in a heartbeat !!! .most of the shell garages sell 100 octane fuel - bonus . I never had any issues over the 1000s of miles , and the cameras that flashed me in France ,did not result in any tickets !!! you seldom see any old cars there ,except Sundays , everyone seems to have a new car !!! Road surfaces are great compared to U.K. Lots of petrol stations have portable tyre chargers - they recharge on their hooks - you just take it to your car .
  18. Rad ready to fit , and engine bay clean up starts ! It’s going take some time !
  19. Well, it's on. Scheduled for the second week in June since not all the Alpine passes open up before June. I've sorted the RAC European zone 2 cover and booked a flexible ticket on the Shuttle. Hotels are all identified and will be booked during January. It's cut across the Austrian and Italian alps to spend a couple of days on the Italian lakes then into Switzerland for a few days running a few Alpine passes then returning via Lake Constance. I refurbished an OEM set of road wheels a while back now. They will finally gain some new tyres in the New Year and be put onto the car so we will be set for fast running down the Autobahn on new rubber. It seems that the only manufacturer for same tread pattern premium tyres on staggered OE 17" wheels are manufactured by Michelin so there isn't much choice available.
  20. More interior going back in , painted some dash panels and plastics - a bit of a process , use a special plastic “etch “ primer then ,primer , then top coat ,then acrylic clearcoat , there are time limits involved between coats . Fitted new flex brake hoses . Removed old rad and checked the coolant . After such a long time the coolant was mint !! Toyota long life really is !!! more wiring to do
  21. Hi everyone, I have recently picked up a spare 2JZ however it does not have all of the sump bolts. Does anyone have a set of sump bolts for sale? I am dartford based and can collect within a reasonable radius too. many thanks! Robbie
