WOW !! thanks Shrew,
I get your point about the "NOS" plugs. Hadn't thought about it that way.
I will get myself a set of NGK 's this week.
Got a few jobs to do over the winter on her.
Cheers
Keith

What plugs do you recommend then Shrew?
I thought lodge were ok.
Looks like I need some better plugs then.....

Such a shame to break up a good , rare motor

Hi Kev,
Can you put one aside for me please.
Looks the part, so I will have one off you.
I "bent" one for a Bertone filter on mine but a spare is worth having.
Cheers.

That last picture is un-real.

Still miss my old Honda

Cheers guys, I will start with a check that the belts line up the markers in the cam buckets when she is timed up (T marker on the flywheel).
Dralf1965, hopefully like yours, that will be the case as she runs but has always seemed a bit lumpy.

Hi all, hoping for some pointers here. Over the winter I wanted to do a few bits on the car, one of which is to get her running a bit smoother. I have a carb service kit to fit so that should make that work as well as it can. However, I did a compression test and have uneven readings. :o Looking fro...

Hi Pat , that is a lovely colour. Your car looks really nice.
Top job.

Well done !! that didn't take long.
It was actually named a Brigand , but bodily it was a 603 tweaked to bring it up to the '80's with "modern" bumpers and lights.

Here is another one to test the grey matter.

That's a good tick list done there Kev, I know what you mean about drilling holes after the job is painted, this shows where my wire hole was if you need an idea.
Good feeling when you can put the lights on.

Think we may need a bit of a clue

She is looking good Pat.
Can't wait to see it with your brothers one as well

They 'ought to clamp down on multiple sat navs and phone holders stuck on screens first !!

I take it was still rear drive, did you know how? Original box mated to the Sud engine? Do any of you get Auto Italia Magazine? yes, and yes ;) Cheers Kev , you will love this months. Lancias and a lovely looking Sud..... 8-) 8-) I was pretty sure Lauren would get that puzzle. Is it a Mercury next ...

I agree, saw one on my way to Cadwell the other week....... the're big as well !!

Hmm ! is that a Shelby badge in the stripe?
Wheels look Italian.
Looks like a Mercury Cougar next to it.

Running this ??

Anyone know anything about this beauty?

Just goes to show how big modern "small " cars are.
I bet there is still more room in the Sud.

Spooky ! I got laughed at by the guys at work when I said a similar thing. Now if it had an Alfa V6 !!!
Struggling to find the next challenge at the moment.
Not sure when we will start the Lancia, but she has got my name on it

Looks like a Gilburn ?

Well done Shrew, (again!!)
She needs a lot of work.
Lovely little motor, check it out.

Inside on a taxi run. I believe that fellow Nova owner Ed Straw (ex RAF Battle of Britain flight) now does the taxi runs at East Kirkby. Of course, he may share taxi duties with other pilots... He may have been the pilot when I went in it. He commented that "Just Jane" was in better condition than ...

Here is another shot.
I can't believe this is already a beta !!
Check out the roof .

Sorry Chris, no.

I am sure you won't struggle with this one Shrew.
Sorry , didn't have a clue on the Mazda.

Wow Kev, didn't know they did that at East Kirkby.
I did a taxi ride in "Just Jane" for my 40th.......... God, that was eight years ago !!
Loved to have seen all three together.
I know what you mean about a good camera, I went here yesterday for a twilight taxi.
