NICE , nothing like fresh paint and new/renovated calipers to make the front end look like new

Looking good 8) 8)

BTW, does anybody know if the marina front hubs are common with any of the herald hubs as I was looking at the alloy front hubs that Merlin Motorsport do as a weight saving / PCD conversion opportunity... :|

The only ones that may fit are the TR7 hubs as they share the front wheel bearings with the Marina. I have seen aluminium TR7 hubs about, I think Ben Clayton had a set at one time and he had a contact who could make them up.

All you have to do is find Ben.

So it's Mr Ben we need to magically appear and not the shopkeeper..

I'll get my coat on the way out..

Looking good Trev !

Those rossini's look good ! Did a bit more tonight as well ! Drilled out the hole for the anti roll bar and put a bit more back together !

just got to get the suspension brackets made on that note do you need the bracket back that i took up with me if so i can post it if need be. for me to fit a front anti rollbar i have got to cut out the slot so a little more work needed there. duel line brakes to be fitted as well so a busy be is me

JIM73 · Post by **JIM73** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 7:22 am

I reckon you should be able to manage that slot Trev ! And i'm hoping its gonna improve the Mk1 handling alot ! Do you have a spare anti-roll bar ? I imagine you have !
