Fingers cross it’s fixed.... I cleaned up all the contacts under the steering wheel and could get to work intermittently (which was better then what I had but still not working properly) so I wire brushed and emery papered the terminals on the horn itself and it appears to be working fine for now. H...

I can get the horn to work by making contact with steering shaft under the horn button, so why won’t it be working when I press the horn then??? Thanks again for your help.

Hi everyone, just after some advice... the horn on my FB is not working, if I put power straight to the horn itself it works and there power at the wire going to the horn. When I disconnect the wire on the steering column there’s no power there. Any advice on what the problem could be??? Thanks in a...

Just wondering what everyone is using for the over flow hose from the top of the radiator to out the bottom of the engine bay. I got some vacuum hose but was hoping there was something that looked a bit more original.

Hi guys, I need to replace my selector shaft seal and was wondering if you can just unscrew the 3 retainer bolts and remove the retainer while the gearbox is still in the car?
Also is the seal fitted from the inside of the retainer?[*]

I'm after a drivers side one

I'm in Melbourne, pulling out the window and 1/4 vent window is no problem as I just had it all out to do the window seals and found them not to bad to get out. Would anyone have a replacement window?

It is the frame mounted tube that has snapped the off, the handle and button assembly snap off from the window frame. Can this be fixed without sourcing a replacement 1/4 vent window?
Thank heaps for your help!

Anyone able to offer any advice on what I can do with my broken 1/4 vent window handle? I just finish replacing all the window seals on the front doors and the handle for the 1/4 window broke as I closed the window.
Thanks

Awesome, thanks for the help guys. Has anyone used the rubbers from Better Auto Rubbers?

I'm looking at replacing my 1/4 windows seal, Bailey channels and door seal and was wondering where is the best place to buy them from these days. I'm in Melbourne.

Hi guys, chasing a couple of bits to finish off my engine bay. First is an original FB battery holder including the two post and wing nuts and the second is one original hose clamp ( the ones you remove with a pair of multi grips). My engine bay is pretty original but not the cleanest so the parts d...

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone has brought a set of reproduction ignition leads on for there FB or EK on eBay from gmhnasco @ $125 and what your thoughts on them were? Looking to keep the engine bay if my FB as original as possible and thought these would be a good addition. Not sure how to paste...

I can't get any out yet Blacky, they all come up a little then get stuck. It's been parked up for over 20 years and looks like there has been no major work done to the engine, can that be why there's a buildup on the lifters? How can I get the lifters out without damaging them so I can reuse them if...

In the photo you can see how high I get the lifters before they get stuck.
