Hi! I have been chasing a rattle that is driving me crazy on the passenger side for months! Got new seals and window roller and nothing seems missing and still can't locate the issue. But as my 70' spend all it first 40 odd years in Texas, all plastic/rubber in the window mechanism is rock...

sorry...wanted to say above, I am too cheap for coil-overs!!

Hi guys, read through all the posts on this subject and again, great to see the expertise, ideas and comments.... But my suspension needs are a little more simple and I hope to have some input from you all on this. I simply want to drop her a bit for aesthetic reasons...yes, I am that...

Gents, have been looking high and low for a door glass roller for my right hand door for 70'Z. Anyone got one or a set laying around that one could purchase for a fair price? Cheers Jan

Hi, the barrel for my fuel lock is worn down to the ground and needs replacing. It is hit and miss to open it and only a question of time before stopping to work completely. As I have not found any direct replacement on the net, I am wondering if anyone has been through the same? I assume...

Gents, my tank is now leaking badly from the seams so need a proper repair fast. Does anyone know someone in the South East who could do a good job???? Cheers Jan

Gents, found this one on Petrolicius. Guess which one at #2 spot? http://www.petrolicious.com/the-ten-best-classic-cars-to-drive-daily Cheers Jan

If any room left, sign me up please. REG: RBK142H Cheers Jan

Gents, running a 70' US model, with original 4-speed box. When cold, no problem getting into reverse without a sound, yet when warm, all tricks in the book will not stop the reverse crunching leading me to believe (wanting to believe due to expensive alternative) that a change to a different...

JimyJ, just caught this thread. Did you display your Z at Fathers Day Show in Liphook at the Deers Hut last year by any chance? Saw a blue Z there and again while passing through Haslemere in my red Z. My 70 missed the Deers Hut show by a couple of days due to it's first MOT. I am going...

Thanks Mike, seems simple enough and hopefully a permanent cure! Really appreciate the help of the memebrs here! Great club. Jan

Gent, I am seeking advice once more............. My horn has been playing up since getting my 70 S30 and had 2 pros looking at the issue and thought the last one had finally got it working but after a couple of weeks I seem to be back to where I started with a ticking coming on when horn is...

Thanks Mike, appreciate the heads up on the modification. Should arrive with the postie in the next couple of days so hopefully a easy fix. As much as I like the idea of improving my car using alcohol, I am afraid it will be wasted as the pump is leaking as a sif!! Just the thought of...

Cheers, think I will try the Lucas pump as this might fit the bottle a bit better.

Gents, anyone know if there is a more reliable pump that will fit onto the bottle for a early S30 or am I forced to find a like-for-like replacement? If so, I would be happy to hear from someone with a spare for sale as mine is gone! Thanks Jan

Thanks again All! Good solid advice all around. Will dig a little deeper and see if I can;t get my head around it all although the patience bit it the tricky bit! Cheers

I might have to bite the bullets and actually learn something new! Electrics is a subject very low on my list ofr interests but in the name cost cutting/keeping car running, I might have to bite th bullet.

Thanks for all the comments. Seems like I will be better off fidning someone in the UK to build a harness. Can;'t be that much more expensive than finding someone in the US.

Gents, got her back on the road, just! But I need to deal with the fact that both interior and engine harnesses have been butchered over the years and for reliability sake need replacing the lot. Searched high and low on the net but they are all used in un-unknown state and I am thinking I...

yep, thanks all! But I am determined now to go down the red US light route and rewire till the MOT man is happy. I do think they look better then the EU anyway but I guess that a different discussion :)
