yes he's saying transferable reg number ,maybe but needs an MOT to do so,so worthless,buyer beware,Going to send him a message see what he does.Nothing probably :evil: It's MOT exempt, so could in theory be taxed as is but the chances are when it came to removing the reg, DVLA would demand an inspe...

Ignoring the fact that they'll bend, they seem to be attached by 2 M6 bolts. That, combined with the bendy design, surely can't be safe.

Dolomite Sprints and the 1850's spring to mind as being a slant 4

Some modern washing machines already use a similar system

An easy way to do it is to get some twin coach lining tape from halfords or similar, stick it on, paint between the stripes then peel it off and you should be left with a perfect stripe.

Just a thought and apologies if it's been covered before, but how about doing a spit type thing through the hole in the bulkhead and just making a frame for it to pass through in the boot area. that was the route i was going to take with mine as that way it keeps the suspension free and isnt putting...

If you meant have i got any pics then no as the wheels are a long way down the list at the moment. However I did offer an 18 & 17 upto it and the 17 was just about right.

17's really fill the arches and are exactly what I had in mind for mine. So do it.

I voted gloss but it was a toss up between that and satin, I guess it depends on what overall style you're going for. As a side note are you doing the prep and paint yourself, if yes it's worth bearing in mind that it's easier to get a good finish from gloss as you can polish inperfections out. With...

I find this thread quite interesting as over the past 23 years Ive been a member on 3 occasions, each time not renewing my membership for some of the reasons highlighted in this thread. Initially I got the feeling that as a 17 year old, some of the members felt I had no place in 'their' club, especi...

If i remember correctly it's called a body number, something to do with when they were manufactured.

Historic is a taxation class for pre 1973 vehicles.

PLG was the old classification (pre historic, LGV, Private etc) and covered all cars and light commercials. If a car hasnt been on the road since whenever historic road tax came into place then it will still show PLG

I bought mine way back when I was 16, so that makes it 23 years in my ownership.

I can see external ones being ok but if the internal kits involve cutting a section of inner wing away then you're definately into IVA tests, Q plate and no free vehicle tax etc. I had this exact conversation with VOSA about 3 years ago, pre IVA but the same rules still applied, you cant turret the ...

So where exactly do the turrets go as this potentially would be a better option. Id assumed you had to cut the rear inner wings and have the shock top mounts inside the boot?

Surely by turreting the rear you're into needing an IVA, same as anything which involves cutting away at the bodyshell ie K series conversions etc?

I was looking at one of the bolt on kits for mine, out of interest how badly engineered are they? I had one on a Minor a few years ago and is was fine without any obvious issues
