  1. I made a mould to do mine but never kept it unfortunately as it broke on removal being so thin and flexible. Its the centre console which gets altered to suit the early radios.
  2. Thanks David, it’s a space thing once done which is always my issue. I’ve not committed to a sale yet as refused a deposit so just verbals giving me flexibility, if I’m finishing it for someone else I might as well do it for myself. Either way it’s going for paint this month πŸ‘πŸ» One person wants white and the other orange.
  3. My car will be a sad sale considering the time and effort taken to get it where it’s currently sat. I’ve had four pretty serious enquiries and a few just asking casual questions. I always try to price them right and looks like I’ll be finishing the restoration which may make letting it go very hard. I’ve spent the last 7 years doing three Esprits and two minis so time for a car break to concentrate on my other passion being motorcycles. Been offered a good business opportunity with someone retiring soon which I’m keen to enact on. If it does go it won’t be my last I’m sure, I still have a serious M100 passion so may go back to that route. Just finishing a LHD bond replica for someone on here which is looking nice now. I think offering to build a car for under Β£50k was a good price as that’s what attracted the buyers especially giving them colour options and finish. Dave
  4. Great to meet Darren today, lovely fella with a very nice original S2, the body and paint are fantastic with no stress cracks and sunroof free. The chassis is solid and it’s had some money spent on it over the years with a good stainless exhaust. It won’t take much of a boost to give him a good running car with ongoing improvements as budget allows. I’d certainly would have been happy to find that nestled away local to me, another will be saved soon I feel πŸ™‚
  5. Hi Darren The interior A post finisher has three metal clips which fit into three plastic inserts. They should just pop away without much force. The clips can get a little rusty sometimes. Happy to pop over if you want some help and guidance πŸ‘πŸ»
  6. Hi Darren I’m in Plymouth if you need any help or advice πŸ‘πŸ» Dave
  7. I mounted mine on the bell housing utilising the standard lead set.
  8. It only takes a little stone or similar debris to cause all kinds of jamming issues πŸ™‚
  9. It should knock back enough to expose both bolts, keep tapping it back and forth 🀞🏼
  10. As Steve says, give them a spray with WD40 and use a nylon mallet to give them some gentle persuasion. The webbing is correct just perished, any upholstery person could replace or DIY it πŸ™‚
  11. Probably why it’s been missing so long, it’s turned up red in Finland with no historical paperwork from the U.K. The chassis plate is correct as 10935.
  12. Essex 15 now painted red with black leather
  13. on FB it stated No27 which isn’t on the list?
