  1. Circa twenty years ago I bought a car that was on farm rego. Pretty sure it just transferred in the normal way and I had to go to the post office to change the rego type so I could legally use it outside my local area.
  2. Same as those on my '51 Vanguard then. Nice deep tone to them as I recall.
  3. Pleased to see that your revised wiring diagram retains the original twin horns.
  4. At first glance it looks like something BMC but I could easily be wrong.
  5. One door closes and another opens. Kind of sad that you've moved on after putting so much of yourselves into that house but also a fresh beginning for you in the new location. Best of luck.
  6. In my youth it was a widely held belief that plugging the welder into the range was a good idea because it ran off the strongest fuse in the house. None of us even thought that the sockets might be lower rated and/or fused separately.
  7. Given that very tall gentlemen generally have rather large feet was accidentally mashing two pedals at the same time ever an issue for you? I found the pedals in a Fiat 850 Sport to be too small and close together for comfort. Is the X1/9 similarly handicapped?
  8. Just showed my daughter your pics for the interior. I think she likes it. She said it's kind of old-timey.
  9. Pretty sure all my ADO16s have had plastic tanks. Something older perhaps?
  10. Hope you managed to dodge the checkpoint on your way home @azzurro.
  11. Washed the Pulsar. Almost organised now.
  12. What's the format? BYO drinks and something to share for the meal?
  13. @Lord Gruntfuttock @gettinroundtuit @Indiana_Jones @Toddy415 ??
  14. That's not dodgy bodgery, it's an engineered solution.
  15. Keen. Be nice to meet a few other members for sharns etc.
  16. Glad to see Bellets are not yet extinct. My dad bought one new in 1970 and it was our only car for ten years.
  17. I have had to replace brake hoses for a wof on a car that was only 25 years old due to rubber perishing. If your Starlet hoses are original they might be living on borrowed time.
  18. Good on you Paul. I remember riding in it with you at Hanmeet. Pleased to see it finished.
  19. Nuffield/Leyland diesel tractor four cylinder might be a valid option if wanting to keep it kind of original or at least as an example of what might have been. The 3.8 as found in Leyland 384 or the 3.4 as found in Leyland 344. Not sure of Nuffield models but fairly sure most parts were interchangeable as those first Leylands were pretty much a Nuffield with different bodywork.
