I am happy to contribute to keep the site up and running.

Brian North worked on my engine, excellent engineer. Ask him if he remember the senior apprentice who he help on the rebuild about 4 or 5 years ago.

In this months Practical Classics there is an article with Martin on his 1960 Commer Fire Engine, also next month an article on his SpaceVan TV licence-buster.

Thanks Mr P, I now know what I am looking for.

Thank you Mr P, it is a voltage stabilizer that I require to feed the instruments, could help me by telling me what I require, I have had to rewire the Ambulance and I am more mechanical than electrical

Would this be the right wiring for the regulator. Positive / A live feed coming from ignition switch. Negative / A wire run to earth / chassis...

Maybe a sett of bearings for the steering box, I made the joints as Speedy did not have them.

A nice piece of engineering.

Very enjoyable, could also smell the Castrol R

Thanks for the photo's, I now have a length of 70 amp cable to run to the the battery. I am waiting for the alternator to arrive then start with the basic wiring first. I had forgotten about Mr Google.

Thanks for the tip. I have a wiring diagram here that I took off the site a while back as I am more mechanical than electrical is this the cable that runs from the alternator to the solenoid,, also do the same size cable run to the new fuse boxes

I bought a Lucas 127 ACR from Rat Sport today, and as the wiring is shot I am ripping all the old stuff out as there are bare wires everywhere, and then hopefully rewire the lot

Thanks for the type,may have found one on the net will phone them today to check.

Rewire time, what type of Alternator do I need to fit, and do new Alternators have built in voltage regulators any help appreciated.

Thanks Mr P . Looks like a removal job and a complete strip down.
