Hi Elliot, regarding transaxle oil cooling the ZF was available to order with a built in mechanical oil pump within the rear black cover casting. As I recall the oil was drawn directly internally within the transaxle casing into the pump. A dash 6 line exits the rear cover to the oil cooler then...
The comment made by LM was understandable in as much as it was a public statement made on a tv show. He and his events have an image and a perception to be maintained. For the vast majority of spectators attending the GWR they believe they are experiencing the real deal whereas some of us know...
Hi Marcel, please excuse me only now replying to you but I do not go on to the website so often.
I have a boxed pair of NOS pristine Cibie 470074 concave glass and P43 bulb fitting.

Speedy Cables is owned by Caebont. They are VDO agents and also own the original Smiths gauges tooling. I have the excellent VDO gauges but with Smiths faces so they look period correct, very accurate and very reliable - perfect solution!

A friend here in UK has them on his Safir and which were a standard option back in the 80's when Peter Thorp produced his beautifully engineered continuation run of cars. They are an excellent, practical and effective solution to the GT40 bugbear of cabin heat soak and when not in use the...
