Just thought I'd post this -
I was a Brooklands the other weekend and was lucky enough to shake hands with this chap  with his Bomb Disposal vehicle -  
He had driven it all the way up from Dorset and late evening well into dark, he was driving all the way home again.
Do we know him?

Do we know of other fantastic military A7's like this ?

I’ve just weighed an entire set of woodwork recently made 
For a GE Cup  which came to 40kg
Adding in the screen, alloy body skin, wings bonnet etc
I reckon the coachwork total will be about 50kg all up, or 112lbs or 1 cwt perhaps a few lbs more?

My ash timber is 1” rather than the 3/4” of an original body.

Has anyone weighed their completed GE Cup or a bare
running chassis?

Interested to know what my final all up weight of a finished GE Cup will likely be
and how much lighter than say a Chummy of the same era
1926 to 1928?

Hoping I can get to 60mph on the flat!

I came across this whilst browsing a French sales website, a Rosengart Lr2 with the option to buy a new electric drive motor. Interesting .

Can someone please point me in the right direction to find "Austin Seven Technical Information" which was a part of the olf forum.

As I mentioned on another thread, I'm shipping my car to Seattle from the UK. I'm outfitting my trailer without the car so need a couple of dimensions. It is a SWB Ulster with a dropped front axle which was not stretched. I need the measurement from the center of front tyre to center of front tyre. I also need the same measurement at the rear(center of tyre to center of tyre). I had initial measurements of 39 inches for front and rear, but need to confirm. It would seem that with the non-stretched axle, the front dimension should be less than the measurement at the rear.

I am looking for one Austin seven 16" wheel for our Grasshopper replica. What I thought were a set of 4 turned out to be 3 decent ones and one scrap one!

Sad I know, but what in your opinion is the prettiest A7? Hopefully this post will not create acrimony. (Specials included in the poll) I like the Gordon England Brooklands.
Cheers,
Dave.

bought this on ebay 2 years ago from someone who had had it for 6V - a 1960s one which connects between the sparkplug and the sparkplug top connection in line.

Works really well and nice and small, and also has the electrical connections so you can turn over the start motor remotely.

And even has its instructions with it still!

Been given another one hence £15

Anyone intrigued by the Austin versus Reliant debate - I have a Reliant engine and gearbox for sale (see Sales and Wants).
