  Middle East Car 11789 got it's MOT.
Posted by: SpudMurphy - 25 Jun 2020, 11:22 - Forum: Members Cars - Replies (2)

So after 3.5 years of ownership. and 1.5 years of retirement, I can say at last that 11789 passed it's MOT with no advisories.
The car has been dragged kicking n screaming back to life what with oil light issues (the sender was stuck inside the engine), Cylinder head, brake issues to name just a few. Still some work to do (it'll never end I know)

My mate who helped me push the car into the garage, said that it looks a lot different to the Chicken coop he helped push lol

Thanks to members here who helped particularly the two Chris's - they know why / how.

My 95 year old Mam has gone through the ringer these last 3 months just as Covid kicked in and suffered so bad with leg issues I thought she might have to be admitted .... but as you can see, after a surprise stop at her house she ignored her "Covid lockdown hairstyle" and posed for a picture.
Cheers

  Track rod end taper thread.
Posted by: Rich Hanlon - 07 Jun 2020, 12:25 - Forum: 5 - Suspension / Steering - No Replies

Hi folks, does anybody know what thread the upper-pointing taper of the front track rod end is please? I know the female thread onto the steering rack is 1/2" UNF so the male taper thread is probably an "English" size too.

Just need new locknuts is all [emoji846].

  Wooler-Hodec RHD for sale £29k
Posted by: Phil Peters - 21 May 2020, 22:55 - Forum: DeLorean Cars or Parts For Sale or Wanted - Replies (1)

Not a DeLorean but nevertheless an interesting look at another car that Wooler-Hodec converted to RHD before they got the DeLorean contract. A 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1 apparently converted on behalf of its owner when it was imported to the UK in 1971.

Spotted on eBay here:
