An Australian-bodied 2-seater, my photo is captioned as a 1925 Holden body, JonE's picture captured from eBay was listed as a 1929:

They would appear to show the same car on the same occasion, so one caption is obviously wrong! 6-inch brakes and dished steering wheel would support the 1925 identification, but I think I have read somewhere that Holden didn't start building bodies on Austin Sevens until 1926; so, is this a 1926 car, or perhaps not even a Holden?

I am posting these here as it seems many do not go to the gallery posts, we have Douglas Alderton to thank for alerting us to these on the Pre War Minor forum. Many are from the LAT archive and there are some real gems and the ones I have put up are just a small sample.

Today, I took a quick ride in my A7. Just after starting I realized a noise from the gearbox area.

It is like a knocking, especially when I release the trottle - any idea what I should check first ?
It a 4-speed gearbox with a period remote lever.

thanks
Oliver

Having quite recently got a Big Seven, I joined the register via Robin Taylor and requested a spares list which he normally sends out. Unfortunately his computer has zapped it and so currently it is not available. Has anyone got a copy they could email to me please?

Hello All
As the starter dog is just screwed into the crank nose, the position of the dogs is determined by how tight it is done up, the thickness of the crank gear and even how the threads were cut when new. I am proposing to split the starting handle with a thread and use shims to adjust the angle of the handle when cranking.
The question is where is the best position for the handle at engine TDC for maximum effort/speed? 9 o'clock on upswing?
Many thanks.
Adrian.
