Today we had two cars on the rollers. The Lenham GT David Stubbings was in for a pre-season tune up as his first race with the HRDC is Easter Monday at Castle Combe. We also had a lovely Lotus Talbot Sunbeam rally car brought in by Ben Harris of B&M Motors. The Sunbeam managed a very healthy 138bhp at the wheels.
A Busy Rolling Road
We have a few cars on the rolling road this week. John King from King Classic Cars in Hove brought his remarkable Jaguar XK120 for a tune up along with Steve Gunnis’ Lotus Elan and a Jaguar E-Type race car from Crosthwaite & Gardiner.
MGB GT on the rollers
Jaguar Mk7 in for pre-season rolling road tune
Volvo PV544 on the rolling road
Richard Conway brought his lovely PV544 down for a rolling road setup. Richard’s PV has a nice patina and was previously owned by a Swedish rally driver. Graham found that the twin weber carbs had a couple of odd jets which were swiftly replaced. The engine is running much better now ready for a couple of track days.
