Looking for a pair of P6 steel rear wings. Ideally series 2, so they've got all the holes already drilled. Cosmetic condition unimportant - just need to be solid and free of any major dents or corrosion. They are for a bare metal respray job. I'm in Merseyside/Cheshire, and often in...

I have a good set of ET headrests in Sandalwood. They are vinyl type (not leather), complete with buttons and working mechanisms. The usual fading of the piping that Sandalwood seems to suffer with, but otherwise clean and good. My car is Buckskin. If any owners of a Sandalwood car have a set...

Hi Guys, I installed my new CompBrake master cylinders yesterday. All went smoothly except for the brake feed pipe (from the reservoir), which I can't connect up. The flanged end of the pipe seats nicely, but the screw union can't pick up the thread. It's as if it's hitting a shoulder. I have...

Can anybody advise if the con rod little end bushes need reaming to size after fitting? There is nothing in the workshop manual except the technical data stating the bore diameter (1.000 in). I have a NOS set of bushes, but need to know what to advise my machine shop. Thanks in advance

I want to take the suspension legs out next week so I can have the ball joints replaced. I've taken one leg off before, and the top link stayed where it was, but I'm not sure if that's because the ARB braced it against the other side. Can I take both legs off at the same time and still leave the...

I need to replace the perished grommets in the bulkhead. I have a replacement throttle bar grommet from Wins which I bought many years ago, but I still need grommets for the main positive cable, and the choke and fuel reserve cables. The grommets for the steering column and 2 wiring harnesses...

Does anyone in the North West (of England) or Midlands know of a reputable specialist who can fit a Webasto? It's for our MG BGT, not P6. Thanks

Putting the feelers out for a set of 14" P6 Rostyles in the UK. Ideally 5.5J (P6B) section, but would consider 5J from a 4-cyl, as they are for a TC (previously converted to accept P6B wheels). Chrome condition important but don't have to be perfect. 'Roundness' and decent internal balance more...

I'll be replacing a lot of rubber parts during the revival of Red Rover. It's been nearly a decade since I was regularly ordering parts for the car, and am pleased to see the number of remanufactured parts and new suppliers entering the market in that time. I am looking for real-world...

I am aware there were different cable lengths between the strip speedo (short) and round dials (long) instrument packs, but did the gearbox ends differ between auto and manual gearboxes? I have been offered a NOS long cable but need to know if this will fit my manual gearbox (standard series 2...

Does anybody know if these were common with Land Rovers or other vehicles of the period? Mine is a '72 TC with the Adwest box if that makes a difference. There's a load of play in the UJ so I want to replace it. The box is coming out for reconning next weekend so will do it then. Steering...

Looking for the following to suit a '72 UK car (not that the year makes a huge difference): - Rear number plate plinth - Fuel filler cap - Fuel filler lock - Rear bumper :)LOL:) Looking for used original chrome is presentable but not perfect condition. Ie better than below: Let me know what...

EDIT - 4th Aug 22. All parts now sourced. Have recently acquired an incomplete Boot Mount Spare kit. Looking to source the following to complete it: - shims. I believe there should be 3? - spacer cup (standard one for steel wheels) - knurled wheel with spreader plate - boot prop, including...

I've heard the door lock design on S1 cars is different, but when I've seen S1 doors on ebay, the lock design looks the same as my car (1972). Was it only very early S1s that had a different lock design? And if they are different, is it easy to fit S2 door locks to S1 doors? I don't want to...

I emailed Torsion Performance over the weekend to enquire about the uprated ARBs they used to be produce, and received the following this afternoon: I've dropped them a note back to pass on condolences. I assume this now leaves us without a ready source of uprated ARBs for P6? I wonder if it...

Well…. it has been a long time, hasn’t it!! Longer standing forum members may remember my profile from 10-12 years ago when I was a pretty active contributor here. I haven't been on regularly for 8 years or more due to becoming heavily (some might say too heavily!!) involved in the P6 Club's...

Well it has been a long time hasn't it! :? I posted a few days ago and noticed it was well over a year since I'd checked in! But it must be two years at least since I was a very regular poster on here. Some/most of you may have noticed that I got very heavily involved with the running of The...

A message of advice to all 2000/2200 owners. Don't over tighten the studs on your cam ('rocker') cover! By the looks of it, the seal is made by gently compressing the cork gasket. However, the 'seal pressure' should be generated ONLY by the three rubber 'doughnuts' under the 'cups' beneath the...

FOR SALE: Pair of Fiberglass front wings. Never fitted and as new. Holes for lights & fixings etc never drilled out. Still in original white primer. Tiny damage to edge of light area - touch of filler will sort. £50 the pair. Merseyside.

As some of you know, I'm gearing up towards a cosmetic overhaul towards the end of the year. Colour and paint application now decided. Wheels decided. Most of the external trim decided. But I still haven't made my mind up about some of the details. There will probably be loads of threads like...

Decided to fit a Jaguar leaping bonnet mascot to the front of my car, but feel it's a bit too realistic.... :lol:

Has anybody got a good (or otherwise) P6B differential within a reasonable travelling distance of Merseyside? The replacement diff I picked up is a 2200 - we weren't to know at the time and only just started stripping it now. It's only got one pair of planet gears and is definitely 3.54:1. On...

I have a terrible habit of getting carried away, you know. Three years ago, I stripped the thread in a spark plug hole. So rebuilt the entire engine. Well the head was coming off anyway! You don't want to get that far and not finish the job, do you? :roll: Last weekend, I welded in a small...
