Thanks for all that information.
Food for thought! What is the thought about clips in the boot toolbox vs felt lining

Re: Hand tools P2 etc
Following up on my query about P2 jacks. Looking through old posts it may be that the post war 10hp cars had the hexnut type (operated by the wheelbrace?)and the bigger cars the wind up side handle type. Now where was the Jack, wheelbrace and tyre pump and starting handle stored in the tourer? The o...

Re: Recent travels
Dex 1961. I had a spare base (without condenser) but had a spare loose condenser with a fixing tag that fitted under one of the base plate mounting bolts so did not have to attempt to solder it in place. See comments about fitting condensers even outside the distributor body…it seems almost anything...

Re: P2 Tourer 1947 Seat removal
Carpets in, look really good, in particular the hand brake and gear lever gaiters really sets them off. Seats fitted back on to the runners reasonably easily, a matter of attempting to line them up! Now remaking the boot toolbox and the lid for the side screen compartment (quite a complicated set up...

Re: Help Bodyshop needed
The diagonal strip is what pulls the bottom front part of the door in, so that there is no gap (often a problem on suicide doors). It can be tightened to pull the door in by moving the screws, or as I did on one car, by making the strip into a pair of brackets and joining them with a short length of...

Re: Mystery straps
I took the front seats apart a bit over the weekend. A bit of woodworm debris in the bottom ply section of the seat pans (that the runners are bolted to) was treated and reinforced with some of the left over ply from the door cards! The sear runners were taken off and cleaned up and greased before r...

Re: Fuel system for P2 Tourer
As already mentioned, I am pretty sure that the “R” export cars all had SU pumps and Solex carbs. I would simplify the system and ignore the mechanical pump…you can remove it and fit a plate (and gasket!) to seal it off (fractional power gain!!) Perhaps fit filters before the pump and also before th...

I have a used P2 steering box attached to the column, drag link and wheel!
I will have a look at it over the weekend and check it out.It came with one of my cars and I believe it is in decent condition.
I am near Stratford upon Avon.Whereabouts are you?
