Not at the moment, Syd, it is one of the points I need to clarify when I visit - as soon as I know, I will update the thread.
Best wishes.

Re: FOR SALE: Daimler V8-250 Saloon - Manual Transmission
Absolutely Syd.
I'm hoping to view it this week and get a better idea of it - not to purchase, I hasten to add !! Modern day manual g/box has to be a bonus.
Best wishes.

Re: Siezed engine STILL.!
Hell Brian, Firstly and I think I'm the first to say it - well done for persevering with the seized engine, patience is a virtue and proves it can be a winner. Your description will certainly those who find themselves in a similar position. For the V8 saloon, if you use the correct steel head gasket...

Re: Electrical puzzle on V8 saloon

Re: Electrical puzzle on V8 saloon
Hello Howard, Sorry, I probably did not make it clear. On my car, the wiring from the 2x indicator warning lights makes its way down to a larger part of the indicator wiring loom.
