    77 V8 possibly for sale......ok it is.

    Ok, where do I begin? Ive come to a decision about my 77 P6. The simple fact is the car needs lots of work, IMHO, to get it to the kind of standard that I want and, being brutally honest, I neither have the time nor the skill to do it. Im also getting massive grief from the wife, as this is a...

    Whats the difference: Sills

    Im looking on the J R Wadhams site and they sell inner sills and base unit side and bottom repair sections. Whats the difference? I dont mean to sound thick but is the repair section literally a repair section if you dont need to renew the whole sill? I need lots of advise, I think im going to...

    Auto V Manual

    Just canvassing opinions really. Ive now promised myself that i will get myself an 'S' at some stage but, having never driven a manual V8, what are they REALLY like? Ive had three Scimitars and one of them was an Auto. It was mega relaxing to drive, completely transforming the driving experience...

    Workshop manuals

    Just a quickie. Would the Haynes manual for the V8 1968 to 74 cover my car as its a 77 registered model? Would i be right to think that 74 models are hardly any different to the very last ones? Im looking on flea bay and i dont want to get one if it doesnt cover mine.. Any advice gratefully...

    P6 bits and bobs

    Anybody got a decent standard steering wheel for my 77 V8? Im not too fussed as to the diameter, i think they are 15 or 17? Im not after concourse condition, clean tidy and not worn to pieces will do me fine! Also, Im after the auto gearstick knob and button, ive got some ali contraption on it...

    Stupid question time....

    My V8 is a 1977 model. IF we assume that its the original engine ( maybe) how different would it be from the SD1s? Im guessing that the factory wouldnt have farted about building two types of engine for two models, surely? Am I, sort of, warm in thinking that ALL V8 production was for one engine...

    Hello from a new P6 V8 owner

Seller seemed 100% genuine and so did the...
