Speaking of DPO's I'm quite mad at mine. I started working on the headlights today. The highbeams didnt work so I thought "just a short or lose wire", I was horridly wrong. I don't know if the previo

Speaking of headlights, I haven't travelled in a 'modern' car at night for some years. Last week I was a passenger in a Jag XK8 and the dipped-beam cut-off was so absolute that on an unlit road I cou

It's interesting that with all the headlight technology - halogen, xenon, wild reflectors etc., they aren't really focusing on where the light is shining!! Another pet peeve is that all of these ligh

Welcome! Mine is a bit newer (76). I can vouch for all the books the other person mentioned, as I have all three plus Clausager's "Original MGB". If you're a perfectionist it's for you. However, for
