    100/6 Stamped Numbers

    My car is a 100/6 BN6. However, it was imported into the UK with documentation as a BN4. It was not imported by myself so I'm not sure if the stamped items on the car are original to the car. My big task is to investigate what the true identity of the car is. I was hoping there were some stamped...

    Seat Slide Installation Questions

    I am installing new carpeting in my '62 AH BT7. The old carpet was cut so as to slide in around the seat slides and could be removed without removing the seat slides. The new carpet kit from Moss is installed under the seat slides similarly to the MGB. I confirmed this with one of the Moss tech...

    Norway 360 video

    360 video works best on a tablet because you rotate the tablet to look around. on a PC or laptop you look around with your mouse. Resolution is a bit low, but the bridge is still fun and captures the feel better then HD Video. https://youtu.be/1lrKbMJYiFw

    TR2/3/3A Type A Overdrive, Physical Differences between Roadster Brands?

    Excepting the ratio difference for some applications (28% for Jags vs. 22% for others?), was there any physical difference in the Type A sports overdrives between those used in TRs, Austin-Healey, MG, etc.? Or are the differences only in the rear casing dimensions? I know the sedans are a...

    Ignition Switch Bypass Help - '61 Bugeye

    Just bought a '61 Bugeye with a 948cc engine. It's a beautiful car, but it didn't come with a key or a wiring harness installed. I wanted to see if the engine runs, or if I need to pull it for a rebuild before going about installing the new wiring harness (which is a touch overwhelming..). I...
