Re: Car covers…
I have a similar garage and bought a Carcoon to go inside. It is a drive-in version so unzips at the end (and sides if necessary.) Like you, No electricity so I mounted a small PV panel on the roof which charges a battery and powers the small fans in the carcoon. Dry and moisture free, albeit not ch...

Thanks for all the advice. The car is not concours, nor do I aspire to owning a museum piece simply like original look, I have the connectors from an equally (Much worse) geeky fellow owner and the battery posts have been drilled by the supplier which is Shield batteries. Not cheap but looks the par...

battery lead connectors
Odd question time..
Would anyone have, or know the correct size for the domed slotted screws for the cup type battery post connectors. I am looking to replace the clamp type for the original style.

Re: Door draught excluder
When fitting I use dabs of evo-stik in areas where it is difficult to crimp the metal of the DE. When trimming it, a very sharp cutter is needed and some clear spray glue is useful on cut-ends to stop the cloth fraying. I am not sure whether they were original but my car has 6" metal rub strips...

Re: Split screen bulk head letter marking
From memory there were also 'S' stencils which it is suggested stood for 'Synobel' / 'Synthetic' paint and I spotted this one at Capel Manor (NLMMMOC) a few weeks ago, which I am told designated 'E' for Export. (Series III Clarendon Grey, 2 door Saloon).
