Hi, has anybody ever used a Ghia dash in a S and removed the grab handle? If so how did you fill the holes?
Cheers
Mark

Re: Steel timing gear noise
Thanks everyone. I have ordered a kit from Ric Wood. He says the kits he sells are dead quiet whilst the steel gears are noisy so it appears these are good and also not breakable.

Steel timing gear noise

Re: Handbrake gaiter question

Handbrake gaiter question
Hi all,
Should there be a clip or something that holds the handbrake gaiter on to the top part of the handbrake?
Kind regards
Mark

Re: Good old days.
Absolutely the good old days. Stoneleigh was a brilliant venue. The car park was every bit as good as the show itself. We didn't realise then just how good the scene was. Fast forward 30 odd years to what we have now - depressing. Yes an amazing place Stoneleigh, cars lined up in the barns and the ...
