Hi Andy
I have a 1947 P2 12hp and it does have seals on all doors and the boot lid. They're in a pretty poor state and I'm not sure if they're complete but the ones on my doors are a fairly soft sponge rubber. Hope that helps...

Thanks to all for your replies. However, I'm not sure that I have made it clear what my problem is..... The front and rear compensators have all been re-bushed as has the front to rear compensator. All the Clevis joints have been replaced and their rod ends welded and re-drilled. I have been through...

Hi Just read your post. I also had the same problem with the telescopic brake rod and also found no trace of the spring. However, once apart, I cleaned it up, loaded it with copious amounts of copper grease and all now seems to be working OK. The only issue now is that I don't know how much free tra...

The restoration of my 1947 12hp has been going well Engine back in and fired up - phenomenal oil pressure (I'll have to get that sorted!), steering, brakes and suspension all sorted.

I seem to have lost that message but I would like the internal and externally threaded pipe nuts that you sent me pictures of. I seem to remember that you mentioned a figure of £6 (?). I'm ass...

Where are you?

Hi (again) Once again thanks for you response - I followed it though and I'm sorry to say it made no difference. However, I went through it all again hoping for a blinding flash of inspiration. But alas no! But I did notice the the on the bracket that forms the gear shift mounting and the two faces ...

Hi Thanks (again!) for responding to my post. I attached a few photographs of what I need. Photo 1 is the pipework removed from the car. Item A is the meter valve - it has SE1 stamped on one of the flats of the hexagonal part of the casting. Item B is a nut with an internal thread and item C is a nu...

I have the following tyres that are now surplus to my needs. Qty 1 Wayfarer 5.00/17 quite old and with surface cracks. Good tread. May do as a stop-gap but not really for road use. Qty 1 India 5.5./17 as above. Qty2 Dunlop Silver Seal 4.75/5.00 -17 Bought some time ago hardly used. Suitable for road...
