Re: Back In The Fold

Crazy! that's me. It was the yellow one on ebay. Chassiss goosed I would say. Have'nt had a proper good dig though. I was ready for that to be honest. I may treat myself to a new galvy chassis. Bulkheads remarkably good. Runs nicely on all 8. Broke the gearstick of at the ball as soon as I got it of...

Re: Different versions of Fairey Overdrives?

Hi
I made the overdrive linkage for my overdrive from 12mm M/Steel bar. It can be cold formed in the vice and drilled and slotted with a slitty disc for the pins. The block is just 30 x 30 square with 3 holes drilled in it. Got a sketch somewhere, i'll dig it out.

Stirling. I got out of Stage 1s 2 years ago now. Moved on to a 110 Hi Cap now. Much more of a realistic vehicle. Congrats on creating the longest thread ever. Have fun on the Disco.
