The gearbox jammed and I have now started stripping it. Four springs and 5 ball bearings came out in the oil and another 3 have since dropped out the drain hole. There appears to be a circlip on the 1st motion shaft bearing but Woodrow doesn’t mention one, does it need to come off?

I have an ignition/gas plate which is wobbly on '29 car.

I can see it has a bolt to tighten it to clamp something, but I've just realised that the thing it will clamp to is the outer stator tube, which of course needs to move. There is room for some brass shim (which stops the wobbliness), but I imagine the ignition plate must be held in place otherwise there will be no fixed register position for the levers.
This is a cobbled together project prior to me so I don't know what I'm missing, but I'm scratching my head how and what it can fasten on to. (The next bit down is the nut holding the steering wheel.)
Has anyone got a photo on file from sorting something themselves that might throw some light please?!
thanks Jon

I think the inner tube which now ends at the steering wheel nut (and doesnt turn when the steering wheel turns) must have originally been longer to permit the fastening of the ignition plate? Is this a part which requires splitting the steering box to replace?

I am setting aside my Scrooge-like indifference to the impending festivities in order to bring you this year's excuse for not spending a fortune on cards and postage... Sorry, I know it's not a Seven but the Ruby featured last year and MGA got the hump...

Merry Christmas one and all!

Hi all, Can someone who has experience of this  problems take a look at the picture posted and give me your opinion of the gap on this Nippy. Door adjustment or sag ? ,The gap looks a little  large with the door also dropped . The other door is said to be much the same. i have a long journey to view this car and would appreciate any thoughts before doing so . Is sag a difficult fix ?
Regards Rob.

A couple of these books have appeared on ebay recently, I've not heard of it before. Can anyone tell me more about it? Should it be on my Santa list?

Hi, having just acquired a H1 carb I am thinking about fitting it to my bog standard 1933 PD. The carb has a weighted piston & no spring. Can anyone suggest a safe starting point for needle & jet please? Also could I fit a spring with the weighted piston. 
TIA. Kevin.

Out of pure curiosity does anybody happen to know the location of the seaside photograph on the December 2018 PWA7C calendar?
It looks familiar but haven't yet been able to identify.
