Yes, this is quite true. My son built and raced his car in the local Pine wood derby many years ago and even got a trophy for second place. He did most of the work but I did help on two key points -

I have pulled out the transmission by itself several times. It saves some work but it is not an easy task, particularly if its an o/d transmission like mine. A British Leyland certified mechanic show

Yes, I happen to have one still. Came out of my 71BGT and it should be in good shape frame-wise. I mention the BGT because I redid the dash on my 72B and found that the inner metal frame did have som

Excellent, another topic of worldly interest on our LBC list. I suppose it is possible for someone to remotely connect to your PC and gain access to passwords although probably not quite in that mann

Perhaps a picture or a parts description? There was a metal bar, as I recall, that stops the window and is somewhat adjustable in position. There is also a thick pad (felt?) that sits on the bottom o

Actually I did manage to get the core out without removing the heater box once. But I wouldn't recommend it if you value your heater box as I was lucky I didn't bend the cover in the process. I was m

Well I for one would like to see some digital pictures if you have them just to see what a Ford Prefect looks like. And to the list, on a related note, the Ford Prefect did come up a month or two ago

Noisy valves and no syncro for first gears are what you could call "design features." After all, this car could now be considered an "antique". Does it leak oil? I always ask the owner that last ques

I would think that someone could make a little money making a "special tool" for this since none exist (that I know of). All you need is a square plug of some kind but its easy to make one. I just a

Is there more than one size of a plug (maybe a metric version)? I ask because I do recall using a standard 1/2" square drive in the past with no problem. But on my 72B, I had to make a tool because t

On my 72B restoration, it is now perhaps 90% complete. One dilemma I have is how to install the hood prop. My 71BGT didn't have one and as near as I can tell the 72B didn't either. I have all the Mos

I'm not familiar with this "Wellseal" but I've always preferred to use a tacky gasket sealer, something that doesn't solidify and make it hard to remove. So it sounds like some decent stuff. I always

No, actually teflon tape works quite well. I had this same problem on my 71BGT and the teflon tape took care of the leak. And it was easily removable on the occasions when I had to take the oil line
