  1. theres a fleet of toyota priuses on my street, not cool

    Attempt to drag off similar Rover 3500S on way to work most mornings, leaves me for dead and it sounds awesome, must be like threehundi horse or some shit as the tailpipe touches the ground under acceleration.. Rover's aren't softly sprung in the rear either 8)

  2. O fuck should have picked that!

    Used to have Motobecane Mobylette, like orange one but blue, was rad used to wind start on the pedals and launch off stand at like 180000 rpm and get thrown onto arse. Was good for jumps too

    Wouldn't do that to yours, too mint. Ebay some points or see what they're the same as cross referenced

    probably find their the same as Simca 1000, look similar...

  3. (not Kevin, he wont help you) at scooter world

    sheepers.

    Hahahaha that guy rules me

    Sure he's my real dad

    I vote cork sheet for gas cap too, also is the motor Villiers based? May be easier to find points if you find what model and series the motor is and search that way..

    Raleigh definitely didn't make their own in house unit so prob Villiers, JAP or DKW based unit.

  4. Rad cheers sounds totally what I want

    Want to give him my specs, try it on and hear a EXPERT reccomendation......!

    was having a panic attack at the thought of going to brorepaires or similar and been told "this is what the book says"

    etc.. Have got back many car's worse over the years, customers cars mostly, took nearly a year to train the local guy out penrose to set up early Jag's as per factory stz at last job.

    Luckily VW is easily adjustible having cammed balljoints, Jag's of the sixties used hundreds of shims :lol:

  5. Okay so after slammin VW in the front and doing tapemeasure wheel alignment, have created understeer world champion..

    She's obviously got some mad camber change issues and could have a play and sort, but im off on a hoon to welly tomorrow

    and theres no power/lights in my lockup at mo, so need someone to helpout tomorrow- or reccomend someone who's ace.

    Pref in central city or eastern suburbs..

    Ta :D

  6. Not good news mate, it sounds grim has the car used lots of antifreese/corrosion inhibitor in the past?

    Sounds like the coolant's been forced out by combustion gas..

    Skoda's of your age run wet liner motors which are known to come loose if corroded internally

    Fill it up with chemweld for now

    You can drain heater by lifting out left rear seat squab and turning tap at base of heater

    best to remove hoses and lift heater out by unbolting from underneath and put the hose through it and flush the shit out.

    The heater is the lowest point on their cooling system and need flushing regularly

    Will track down Skoda club details for ya

    Unless you just want to sell it to me, could be keen
