Moriarty is back on the road.

Post by vicfox47 »

Hi all,
After 6 months hard work, a pile of cash, yards of sticking plasters and a stay in A&E with angina Moriarty my 1971 Traveller is back on the road. We completed a successful run to the S W Autojumble yesterday.He now has a new rear panel, rear wings, boxing panels and sills, plus I have rebuilt the wood with some new bits, finally, new brake shoes and cylinders and now he stops as well.
I need just one bit and I don't know what it's called, but there is a pair of guides behind the handbrake where the cables go into the tunnel and one of mine is missing and none of the suppliers catalogues list it. Does anyone have a spare?
I live in N Dorset.
Regards,
Vic.

Well done indeed. MOSS show the parts - item 150. ALWAYS refer to MOSS when looking for an assembly - although do check elsewhere on pricing. MOSS have several depots - so there may be one near you where you can save money by collecting from the counter. http://www.moss-europe.co.uk/shop-by-mo ... odels.html

as well as the metal guides there should be two gaskets fitted eg. http://www.minisport.com/21a385-handbra ... -seal.html
