Welcome Tommy! Bet you could teach us a thing or two about how to deal with this snow stuff that has brought the UK to it's knees this last couple of week.

I would guess the answer to his question is to not use a gearbox that was built for a later (and apparently different) model! Some folk may not have a choice. THe chap from Australia who purchased a Six without an engine for example. It's nice to see these things can be done, if needed, although better to use original, as you say, if possible. Doesn't Edwin have a later engine fitted? :b As to the forum v group question; it looks promising as we have gone from 12 to 18 Members in the last week. Nothing to stop folk being on both. At least one has said they prefer the group layout.

doors are also on shopping list You did remember that the doors in the last couple of pics are available at a very reasonable rate didn't you Ahctog1? My concern about the door trims is not their removal from the Six doors, but the replacement on the 18.85 ones. I think they must be longer and will necessitate the removal of the welded on brackets that allow the mounting of the door cappings (see pic 8 above).

Yes, welcome and like Chris says; please may we see some photos of your S. What colour door panels do you need? Would blue/grey be any good?

Apparently Tony now has an email address I think he's had one at work for sometime. Maybe he just couldn't face more PCs when he got home? I thought his email addy was in the last mag. or maybe on the website? Just checked and it's not on the website. Maybe I was imagining it? Found it and sent him an invite.

Some of you may remember BL Transverse in South East London? Steve had problems in contacting him when he was looking for bumper irons some while back. Apparently Vek - see www.londoncarhire.com is happy to pass on messages as Les isn't on email! So get your enquiries in and don't forget to mention the Landcrab Forum when you email.

I have only a Maxi and an Austin 1100 but I'm sure I'll have a Landcrab one day! Welcome! Like I said earlier, we have agreed to open this board up to Maxis and the Austin 3 Litre, so "feel right at home" and please post a couple of pictures of your Maxi in the Your Cars landcrabs.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=talk section.
