    Just a thought if you are at this stage I would spin the gearchange housing round to get the correct use of the reverse lights.

    Freestyle brake pipes

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/134796894979 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/135082358860 These along with some clips are all you need, along with some flexible pipes, which I think as normal Mini ones, unless you want to go for braided which do give a better feel.

    Bah Humbug the lot of you

    Currently no kit cars at Phaeton Towers, was in dialogue with the owner of my old Bugrat but he seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth, I believe he wasn't well after a back injury, hopefully it's nothing more serious than that, but as DVLA won't play ball & providing any...

    Good luck, I have worked with computers for over 40 years, but I cannot for the life of me edit a video or use CAD software, you probably need to ask the grandkids, they'll show you how to do it on their phones :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

    Freestyle suspension parts.....

    Sorry it's so long ago now since I had a Freestyle, especially with an A series, but seem to remember that we replaced the bottom arms with ones that looked like these https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/294018275765 I didn't changed the tie bars as I remember the last time coming back from Wales & the...
