The POO BUS gone but not forgotten.

Looks good Rick, that whiterock stuff looks ideal for lining the back of T25 with, where did you get?.............have you got any left

 

yeah loads at work let me know rough sizes as it's in 8x4 sheets so i'll cut to rough size for you

 

I'll have a measure up and let you know

 

done one of the new doorcards today, looks loads better with no speaker holes.

 

put the 6 inch speakers from the doors in the back now, sounds great.

 

looking good. are those my old door cards?

 

yes mate.

 

Nice work on ythe door cards, they look like new.

 

Been to GSF to get a new starter using their discount NOVE35 got 35% off £175 so £113, then a further £30 off for taking an old one, so £83 for this beauty! hopefully i can now turn off with confidence she will restart without my hammer.

 

I got one from GSF in June after having to use a hammer as well. Think mine was about £78 after the discount available at the time and the £30 exchange refund(mines a manual so I think slightly different, and cheaper, than yours). Touch wood, its been absolutely fine ever since and it noticeably spins the engine over faster

 

the one i had off @1973daisey is on now, that spins quick but sticks, the one i took off and exchanged today spun dead slow and suffered hot start i'm hoping this one finally sorts it as you can't bump an auto, if not new ignition switch next i think

 

Ha, that got me thinking.I fitted a large MKII Cavalier washer bottle about 6 years ago and i've never topped that up either. Still works.

 

Have you not fitted an ign. switch bi-pass relay. Mine already had one when i bought it. Gets all the power direct to the starter.

 

you mean hot start? there was one on when i got it but it was bodgy so i removed it, i'd rather the starter work right than band aid it.

 

Hot or cold , still does the same job. Mine works fine without it but i,m taking the stress out of the switch and 40 year old wires that run from front to back twice. Mine was also very bodgy so i re-did it. Those pesky Americans.

 

I might fit one neatly if it continues to play up but hopefully the new starter will sort it

 

It's easier and argueably neater than a new wire from the ignition switch.

 

i changed the bed today for the one i got off @Chrisradioman, mine was stained but also the foam had collapsed, chris' ones are firmer and cleaner but more sun faded, here's a pic of why mine were a bit uncomfortable....

here's the "new" ones in situ

 

Yep mine is like your old one, once I figure out the foam thickness I need I will change mine.

 

if you want my old "back" that's ok i only changed both so they colour matched.
