Good wright up. Is yours the bmw/5 speed or jag/6 speed? I’m guessing the 5 speed.

Those bill oddie plastic clips that hold the pipes on to the heat exchanger. My old V8 RR needed a new heat exchanger because I was getting the famous overheating meaning it was holding a lower gear. Off course you take all the care in the world trying to unclip the pipes but the plastic had become so brittle they just disintegrate. Result... you have to buy the two pipes as well as the heat exchanger. |

Re rusty suspension, here's a pic of mine taken a couple of weeks back when replacing the rear bushes.
