    1600e horn

    Series 2 1600E's have 2 horns :thumbup:
  3. I really want them but would be too frightened to put them on! Not only that......:wife:
  4. Maybe you could work something out with Dave.com as I'm waiting for him to pick up some wheels from me :playball:
  5. I have one that needs a bit of finishing in that it has no locking mechanism. I had my Crayford on it for 9 months though. If your interested it's £100 but you'll have to pick it up from Berkshire. Eddie
  6. Apparently the EKT rubbers fit both. I have one in my S2 & although a bit tight, it went in. I know they've had some bad press round these parts & I only got one because you couldn't get one anywhere else at the time. They are good quality as well.
  7. The Series 1 is 574mm so 6mm difference
  8. No, they have not been on Ebay. I've had them for a couple of years but they're now not needed.
  9. I have a set of 5.5J x 13 4x108 Turbines for sale. These came off a MK2 & have a -12mm offset if you are interested? I have the centre caps to go with them. £175 Pickup from Ascot Berkshire only though.
  10. Yep, that's the one Gary :thumbup:
  11. It was very quick indeed. I paid £1600 for it with a smashed windscreen in 1984. I managed to get one for £60 from the American car breakers in West Drayton, which came out of a Charger (they are the same). What would it be worth today?
  12. Lovely car that. I had this in the mid 80's. It had a 440ci in it but petrol & tyres were cheap back then!

    MK 2 Crayford

    I have seen this car & it will be a good easy project for someone. It's a nice car & has great potential. :thumbup: Good luck with it Jon Eddie
  14. And after all that Graham, if you bu66er the head up I've got a spare one you can have for the price of a pint ..or three :cheers:

    I've recently bought a new one for my Crayford & am very pleased with it. Good price as well :thumbup: Clicky

    Mk2 Query

    Electric fan mounting by the looks if it.
  18. The MKIIOC has very good quality jacking points :thumbup:

    My 1600e

    Nice proper car that. Good luck with the resto :thumbup:
  20. I used one of those for years Tony. It just seems things are done differently nowadays.
  21. You finish off with 320 prior to painting metalllic basecoat?
  22. OK, fair enough. The idea of wet flatting is so it don't clog the paper, so what's the best grade paper to use to get it to a point to put Basecoat on without it clogging up all the time?
  23. I am in about the same position at the moment. I was a paint sprayer by trade from 1984 - 1999 using celly primer & paint up until the early 90's when we switched to 2k. I always wet flatted the primer (not the filler) with 800 grit prior to painting. Drying it was with an airline then heater, then painted. I don't recall ever having problems with this method but nowadays I hear so many conflicting opinions of this that it has made me think whether to do it this way now. Sorry it don't really help but I'm sure there'll be a more 'modern' painter along soon to help out here.
