1978/79 GTS

[GTSPhil]

So long time no posting on this forum or on this mini for that matter.

Well let's see.....

Way back in may 2019 I did this little conversion.
Twin SU HS4s.


   

It came with the little challenges of making it fit, running the correct needles etc.

Then the clutch stopped working properly.  The clutch arm was at fault including the plunger that gave up.


   


While I was at that the engine was removed and I wanted to rectify this nice mess...

The gear selection sucked, upon further investigation the selector forks was worn..


   

Got the best fork out of my used stack and


   


Some more gearbox bearings and baulk rings being replaced.


   




   



Layshaft also

Then the preparations for Cars in the Park 2019

Fitted the wheel arch covers and rear bin liners.
For the un-informed these items should match the vinyl of the door cards on an original car.


   


New carpet set seeing as the black set did not match too well with the look I wanted.


   


Front fitted.


   


Rear fitted and done.


   


Also fitted the stud and plug for the carpets, that I had sourced long time ago and never fitted before.
