What are scrapers btw?

Do you need only the cyl. kit or the whole cylinder??

Window scrapers are for the window sills, some part that we need to insert there to avoild water getting into the door channels.

I only need the Brake Master Cylinder, Even if i get the KIT i am OK:thumbs up

If you mean the weather-seals, they should be able to make some alteration for it. The guys did it on my Herald using I think maruti rubbers. Here're a few pics.:

I should have a TVS kit lying at home. :)
Would it be ok to send next week though, after my exams are done?

PS: How about correcting the title (1962)?? :D

My dear friend got me ORIGINAL GIRLING kits sometime back.

Presently the Master cylinders are fully overhauled.:D

Waiting for the fuel lines to be drawn, the car is already running, but was not the way i want it to.

There is that thing in me from a long time, any old classic that i restore has to run like a Daily Use car, till such time, i dont deliver the car to the owner. This is the case with this car too. Maybe by weekend the car shall finally go from the workshop.:thumbs up

Well, the brakes and the clutch are working like a dream, but over a period of 5 kms the car is overheating... Radiator was found to be at fault.

The Original radiator was serviced during restoration, and was working fine, but the fins being of iron is well known for retaining heat than dissipating it.

Getting copper channels and copper fins made for better heat dissipation.

The radiator came back and the core is BRAND NEW..:)

Earlier the original radiator was 2 core, but the new one's are 3 core copper, as the guys call it Heavy duty.:D

Fitted them on the car, and most probably will be testing it tomorrow.

I really hope not to get any more ghosts.

As far as i can remember, this must be the First time the car ran without any glitch.clap:

The car is behaving really nice, except for the propeller shaft noise, i think i will get to that tomorrow.
