What have you done today with your Austin Seven

Either that or in Wales we are just worriers. Cast ali sumps are a very good idea indeed, I wonder what percentage of running cars still have their tin sumps.

Two of my three do.  The RK has a very good tin sump. The Van has a tin sump that is almost more solder than tin!  The Special has a Barlow aluminium sump.

On that very wide ranging survey…..66.6 %  Big Grin Big Grin
