I had to weld up a 40mm hole in a peice of angle iron from a temp gauge that was there on a bench I got and making it to my liking

While looking for something to fill it I found the old front shocks in my steel rack and the top cylinder fit the hole so the top 1cm of the shock got grinded off and got welded in to fill the hole

My hydro pump has a Mini clutch MC mounted on a Fiat 124 Sport pedal box.
My brother's 1965 Hillman Imp has had the HS2 carby off my old 850 since about 1972.. It replaced the POS Solex carby it came with.

Many AC Cobra, kits use mini front lights and indicators for light and signals, the number plate light is also used across most older caravans and trailers. The 10" wheels are common for boat trailers.

A corroded 1957 Sabre jet fighter was rescued from atop a pole at Raymond Terrace NSW 3 years ago. It has been restored by volunteers at Fighter World museum at Williamstown, and officially unveiled today.
Wheels on it now incorporate 10" Mini wheel centres, to fit to its 4" pcd hubs. 2 Mini wheels supplied gratis by DrMini and they modified to suit.
Pics to come.

[edit] Plane will be displayed outside Fighter World next week in a fenced enclosure.
