Hi, I'm thinking about making my 3500s more fuel efficient so as to employ it as a daily driver. Swapping the gearbox for a five speed from an SD1 seems reasonabley straight forward, but what about efi? From what I understand I'll need the injection manifold from something like a late 80's...

Hi Just tried to remove the otter switch on the inlet manifold and managed to snap two bolt heads off! Any ideas for getting the rest of the bolts out? :D

Hello chaps, Bit random I know, but now my p6 is finished (well as finished as these things ever are!) I'm after a new project. Ideally I'm after a spitfire but whatever it is it needs to be tax exempt. Not got much in the way of funds so a non runner needing work is more than fine. I live...

Hi Guys! I need help. I've just bought a in line signal booster for my radio. Great I thought, I'll finally get some tunes in the car. Not so. Got in to plumb the thing in and the radio wouldn't come on. I've done a bit of poking about and there is no power getting to it. I've traced the...

Hi, My brother had to do a double take today. He was in aston and thought me saw my P6! It was only on closer inspection he saw it was a series one. Apart from that it was almost identical to mine - dark blue wearing minilites! Anyone know it/ own it?

Hi, I'm after some simplle advice (I hope!). The off side rear wheel bearing on my P6 is worn and loose. Is it possible to tighten these up or is the only option to replace? While I think, I could do with knowing the same about the front! Apologies if this is a daft question, but I've...

Hi, The interior push buttons on my doors are causing me grief. At some point during the restoration the little clips that hold the connecting rods from the buttons to the lock in place have gone missing. Without these the connecting rods don't stay er.. connected. Has anyone got any...

Hi, Project Christine is now into the stages of fixing the annoying rather than the desparate. Next on the list is a very annoying noisy tappet which is ruining my enjoyment of the V8 song. Can anyone advise me as to how to shut this rattly tappet up? Theres only one and its on number one...

Hi I've been given one of these but with no instructions. Anyone able to oblige? Anyone ever used one for that matter? How well did it work? Many thanks

Hi, Got a problem - the headlight flasher isn't working. It was fine then one day just stopped! I've checked fuses and I've had the stalk out - the switch seems ok. Theres power to it because the main beam works. Any ideas? Is there a relay that could have given up? Ta Nick

Hi I'm after a pair of brackets that hold the top part of the arm rests to the door. I think they are specificcaly on the v8 models many thanks nick

Hi nearly finished with fitting my new carpets, I got them from classic rover in Doncaster. I need some advice though on the pieces that cover thefront seat fixings. The pieces I have are kidney shaped with chunks cut out. I know they need folding to make the required box shape but I don't...

Hi, I'm nearly there with the main part of my resto of my 3500s, so the cars about to go back on the road. The problem I have is in fitting the new carpets. I have the sill pieces in place but they appear too long (its a new set). Unfortunatley I neglected to pay proper attention when the...
