@geoberni - and for the interesting diversion into 2 or 4 blades!

@olonas Maybe spots would look good!

Thanks J! I’ll check in the manuals when I’m home next week. Ian took a red one off but assumed it should be yellow. T would obviously prefer a red one

Hi, does anyone know whether the fan should be red or yellow on a Dec 1959 Traveller? Thanks!

Thanks @rocco
I will take a look.

Does anyone have any recent experience of having a 948cc engine rebuilt? Mine needs a rebuild but it's proving very difficult to find a reputable company to do it. Many seem to have gone out of business in Covid; others are just no longer interested in doing this work. I'm looking for recommendation...

@sleeper Thanks John!

@sevendin Thank you!

@sevendin I’ve just had my Traveller converted to unleaded in the same circumstances as you. What is the fuel stabiliser you use and how much do you put in? Thank you.

Thank you - I've contacted them for a quotation.

Hi, Can anyone recommend a trailering service as I need to get my car from Stansted, Essex to Ely, Cambridgeshire. Thanks for any help!

Excuse the Mrs in her youth. This is my Traveller in around 1882. I had just fitted green corduroy panel covers. You can see the original cover board. although it may be upside down. It was a piece of hardboard with a folded metal edge on one edge and a finger hole on the other.IMG s1983 mar Large....

Thanks everyone! My car doesn’t have the fillets so no board…although, as the wood was replaced some years ago, it may have had the fillets & board originally.

One of my Travellers from years ago had the cover fitted. It was a sturdy piece of fibreboard with a folded over metal edge; nothing like the flimsy bits of cardboard type material sold these days. Every Traveller that I have driven and all the timber kits that I have ever seen have included the li...

I don't believe any Traveller had an original aperture board. I can't see one on the Parts List and if you look at images of Travellers with the rear doors open, very few have the aperture covered and those that do are not a consistent material used.traveller.JPG How interesting! Thanks for the pho...

My 1959 Traveller doesn't have a spare wheel aperture board, but my partner's 1968 Traveller does have one. Is my board just missing or did the earlier Travellers not have one at all? Thanks for any advice on this.

Thank you…that’s really helpful.

I hope I am replying to you Keith…not sure how this works yet, but thank you!

Hi, I have a 1959 Traveller with radial tyres fitted. They are 145 R14 76S. Any ideas on what the tyre pressure should be? Thank you!
