As any body any Bowdenex parts for front brakes, all I have is one cable. I will be fitting to 1928 RK saloon but can adapt later kit to fit my car.
   Must be getting old starting to get worried about brakes being not good enough.

  McLaren Model
Posted by: Ian Williams - 07-12-2017, 01:48 AM - Forum: Forum chat... - Replies (7)

A few months ago I was visited by a retired gentleman wanting to build a model of Bruce McLarens special, I provided him with a number of photographs, measurements and allowed him to crawl all over my cars. Today he came back to show me what he has achieved, about 12'' long, totally scratch built, I thought it deserved a wider audience and that some of you would appreciate all the work he has done so here are a few pictures.

  Drawings for GE Cup Model Hood Frame
Posted by: Peter Johnson - 06-12-2017, 09:55 PM - Forum: Forum chat... - Replies (21)

Hi All

As I haven't got around to building the new engine for the Cup Model yet,  it's still using the engine from my Fabric Saloon. The weather is getting decidedly wintery now, so I got around to wondering whether anyone has any drawings for the Cup Model hood frame.

I have seen a 'proper' one and it's a reasonably complex affair, but think that it would be worth getting it right.

All the best

Peter

Seems a shame if it is, whats there looks to have been on the road recently, is it me or have the change's to the UK licensing laws encouraged more and more of this sort of thing.

A lovely example of a relatively original Ulster. 
First registered in 1930
5 owners
Bought for VSCC trialling but family commitments means we will need to postpone challenge
Many new parts, inc fuel tank
Serviced at Brewster Mudie in October
Gearbox (4 speed). 
Renovated over the past 15 years by previous fanatical owner 
Bodywork and panels very solid. 
Much loved example
Needs some mechanical tinkering to make perfect
Very regretful sale of very pretty Ulster 
Oxfordshire
£19,500 


EDIT


I am not selling the car no idea who's the owner and never seen the car
The purpose of my post is photo number 4 and the description "A lovely example of a relatively original Ulster"
Huh is it really an Original Ulster? i
Hopefully it will help a buyer to ask questions about the originality of the car and see this thread so he can make up his mind.

  Doug Woodrow Austin Seven Manual..
Posted by: Albert S - 05-12-2017, 03:20 PM - Forum: Forum chat... - Replies (23)

Just spent a delightful part of the morning chatting with Susan Woodrow,wife of the late Doug Woodrow author of The Austin Seven Manual, for anyone considering any mechanical involvement with their Austin an essential addition to the bookshelf.
Followed several copies that have been listed on internet auction sites.. good condition,few oily smudges squire.. that usually end up at the thick end of £60-70. Online bookstores vary,some at ridiculous asking prices... so what a pleasure to find Susan Woodrow,still driving her 28 Chummy,sells new volumes for £47.99 plus £6.50 p&p.
She can be reached on: 01945 430058..what a cracker of a gift for Christmas morning.
