Re: Re: Hello from the Midlands !
thanks Gaz !!
van has turned up some interesting problems thats for sure.. went to a friends today and armed with measuring devices and my laptop I came up with the following plans..
need a pair of these for starters..
the van is a deluxe not an SL so considering most Romas were SL makes it that little bit rarer (out of the 10 or so remaining lol)
have managed to source a good quantity of panels from a car floorpan that was mint but was being cut up for scrap as the top had been salvaged already for repairs to a very much loved family car..
so have
2 jacking points and sill re-enforcers
both panels OS and NS where front and rear rails overlap and 8 inches either side??
both rear filler free mint wheel arches
both front chassis rails and front cross member (did I mention these have the consistency of fibreglassed cardboard too?)
mint bonnet
the little pieces that cap the ends of the front cills in behind the front wings
and a few other little bits..
have amazingly had the engine running.. a splash of fuel down the carb and a clean of the points saw it fire straight up (seriously!!!) no il pressure though so suspect either stuck oil pressure relief valve or strainer..
