Re: 1962 Daimler SP250 - Oregon, USA
Just another observation; both front spring pans would appear to have rust holes with mounting parts for the shocks missing. What, in pic 211?

Nice find Mike
I would pounce on it immediately if not for the cost of fuel and the hassle when going for groceries.
But the thought is tempting, my wife in the turret with goggles and headset giving directions
which EV to run over …

Re: What kind of fuel were they using??
To whom it may concern ... As a new season is about to start I finished the "book keeping" for my Dart. The log now contains all data from 2016 'til the end of 2023. In terms of average fuel consumption there is little deviation throughout the years which is not very surprising as the &quo...

Re: briggs body driver side
I have not had a chance to do a search, but there was a very good and long running commentary bout 25-30 pages on a LD10 restoration on her last year, they had a scrap car that they stripped for parts and may well have what you want, they seem to have gone to ground for now but worth a search I wou...

Re: SP250 braking system
First of all thanks to all of you who answered to my story. @Nick I’m sure you’re right that there was no change to the brakes during production. I think the answer from John hits the nail on the head. My Dart did not get the blessings from the Swiss authorities (Swiss MOT) at the first attempt. ( I...

SP250 braking system
It was time to refurbish the braking system on my SP. So in Feb. 2023 the rear calipers were refurbished with new pistons and gaskets. New discs and brake pads for good measure. The whole procedure went without any problem whatsoever. Now it was time to tackle the front. I learned that there are com...
