who re upholsters Coupe or any seats
Hi Gys. For colouring vinyl seats try vinylcoat. One of ou r members used it to turn tan seats black and my god it works a treat. Had the rear seat in my coupe re covered by a firm in Preston but I had to do a lot of re gluing. Don't know what they use but it's crap.

Hi If it was mine I'd put it back on points and renew rotor cap leads and plugs. I've heard of a couple of issues with H&H true or not I don't know. Cheers Phil D.

Hi guys. So the decision has been made (forced) The axle is coming out and going to a specialist in Preston who says he can turn it around in 2 to 3 days. I'll have another chat with him. But I did manage to win a rev counter on e-bay. I'll let you know. Cheers Phil D.
