Daimler 15 project to complete

I have had this 15 for a few years and have done a lot of the renovation works. But I have run out of momentum to finish this project. I have too many other projects to finish.

Daimler 2.5 lts engine

Hello all.

Can anyone tell me if the conrod ( bigend) can pass through the cylinder bore on removal of the pistons, so i don’t have to remove the crankshaft. Or is it similar to the Daimler 15 where it is to big to pass though the bore.

Re: H3 carburitor

A complete carburitor. My Sports Special was fitted with a single carb and manifold, presumably from a saloon. But fitted with one of the original sports special 1 3/8 H3 carbs instead of the original 1 1/2 from the saloon. Hence the car is incredibly underpowered.

Re: DB18 Interior Light Switch

Hi Dennis,
If you are still looking for an interior switch, I have one. It came in a box of bits that was in the boot of the car when I picked it up late last year. Send me an email if you are interested.
