Frogeye Sprite axle and engine recondition

Lindi Galloway has owned her Frogeye for over 40 years. It has been restored during that time and looks very presentable but lately the rear axle has been making some noise and engine has become somewhat incontinent. The axle was stripped and cleaned, the differential was rebuilt and the whole thing re-assembled with new oil seals and gaskets. The 948cc engine was removed and partially stripped. The bearings were checked and turned out to be in great condition. The engine was re-assembled with new gaskets and the front rubber sump seals from the 1275, part number TAM1171, on both the front and rear of the crank. These are far superior to the original cork items.

Sunbeam Alpine. A few small jobs

Southern Classics Richard Long dropped off his very tidy Sunbeam Alpine for a few small jobs. One of which was to set the tappets, the ignition timing and to set up and balance the carburettors after a new aluminium cylinder head installation. The car is running great now and looks good too.

Tim Dallas returned this week with his Alfa Romeo 2000 GTV. We were asked to fit polyurethane bushes all around along with new springs and Alfaholics front wishbones. All that is left is to setup the geometry.

A couple of jobs on an Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint

A couple jobs on a beautifully presented Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint. A new starter motor fitted and some vents in the polycarbonate rear windows. We were also asked to make a list of all that would be needed in order to go circuit racing. Currently the car is a track day regular but the owner is considering going racing.
