    Here are some more pics of it if anyone has any interest. As far as the when he bought it he was given a title but never paid attention to. Well unfortunately it has a buyers name written in of some long previous buyer who never transfered it... so basically a dead title.

    The car is still available. I listed it for a friend over a year ago for what I told him I thought was too high of a price... unfortunaly he overpaid for it when he bought it a few years ago and hauled it up here. He drove it some and put it in storeage. He asked me to advertise it and it...

    Just curious.... have any of you tested to see if a 1 inch bore master cylinder actually gives redundancy in your brake system? Many years back in converted my f1 to dual reservoir and found that when I cracked a bleeder on the front or on the rear. There was not enough travel to effectively...

    I had something similar happen to me once in my f1. In my case it ended up beeing the pin in thr carrier that the spider gears are on sheared the roll pin, allowing it walk out a bit and smack the end of the pinion gear... did a bunch of damage.

    Thanks, it is actually a late series 2a... so a few diferneve from a series 3. It is a great vehicle, my wife's favorite to drive. Has a rover diesel and fairy overdrive... so can actually get up to 63 mph. But takes a long time to get there and is loud being all aluminum. It gets 27...

    Yup same truck... that is back when I first built it 12 years and 185,000 miles ago. I originally had a rusty 51 hood on it that I replaced with a better 52 hood.

    The guys keep calling it "the 38" so no actual name as of yet.... I have let the 11 year old mess around with driving a standard in the driveway. And both girls I have shown how to drive our model t's as well. I started acquiring more parts for next years machine I want to build (the 31...
