    Re-Spray in the South, but can travel

    Hi not easy currently , most GOOD , shops are stacked and not taking any more work , if he will take a booking best guy in our area is Graham at Williams in Otterboure , between Winchester and Eastleigh , his work is spot on , does all the RS owners club stuff , and we know how fussy they are .

    Fuel rail

    So help me out , is this fuel pipe rail factory or not , it joins the carbs , from looking at others on the net the pipes go into the air cleaner and not onto a connecting pipe , anyone know which is correct . The chrome tube attached to the intake . Car has always ran fine .

    How long will it take me to put it all back together?!

    all depends on your time and space restraints , i have rebuilt a fair few over the years only one Z , but they never go as fast or as smooth as you think . Good luck , but dont rush , and then have to rebuild stuff again , doh done that many times myself

    This is a twin pulley , the outer one looks cast as one bit , but my machine shop bloke does not see it as a problem , this is a guy who is making /rebuilding a pre war Lagonda in his front room ! i kid you not . Oh and he is single .
