I bought this years ago with all good intentions of doing some car spraying at home but it never happened. They were sought after in their day and still have devotees. The blue spaceship shaped device is the compressor and you can see the unused gun, hose, spare pot and extras in the photos. Nothing has been used except to plug in the compressor to check it works. I believe it uses the HVLP principle (high volume low pressure) giving greater control, less overspray and reduced noise. It's been sat on a shelf in my heated garage for years and so want to sell on. Will leave it here for a few days before consigning to the masses on a well known auction site. Asking £169 and it's in West Lancs, 10 minutes from J27 of the M6. dapser

A set of five Revolution 6" x 14" 5 spokes in excellent condition as evidenced by the photos.
Yes they are red but it's a very good powder coated finished and would be a good base for painting another colour or you may just like red anyway.
PCD is 95.25mm as used on some Caterham models, Triumph TR7/TR8, Maestro, Montego and other smaller Triumphs such as Spitfire, GT6 and Dolomite. Buyer to confirm they will fit please.
Rear of wheel is stamped 14 x 6 and I have measured the backspace from wheel rim to mounting face as 99mm. This represents, by my calculation, an ET figure of +12 but again please check for yourself.
14" five spokes are no longer manufactured and are highly sought after for 1970's and 80's cars as the still available 15" five spoke wheels tend to look disproportionately big on smaller cars.

Bumping this in the light of recent thefts. A quarter the price of a Disklok in Halfords!

Probably nothing but putting up here in case anyone spots a reference to this car online anywhere.
I've just driven a mile or so behind a white pickup towing a trailer with an immaculate MGB GT painted in Gulf blue with an orange stripe. It is unusual in that it has nicely fitted bolt on wheel arch extensions rather than the usual Sebring wide arches.
What worries me is that it was sat on its floorpan (no wheels) and wasn't well secured as amongst other things the tailgate was bouncing open on the poor road surface. Struck me as odd that having taken so much care to create this bodyshell it was now being transported so as to risk damage.
This was spotted on the B5246 heading east towards the A59 in West Lancashire. I have some details of the trailer if need be and dashcam footage.
I do hope I'm being overly suspicious and this is all totally legit.

Great writing and fantastic car.
Just one thing I would change, and I see it every time I look at your photos, the plastic badge on the 'C' pillar was introduced on the later rubber bumpered cars and has never looked right on chrome cars.
Your car looks to have been convereted from rubber bumpers whilst in the UK but the later badge left in place.
You might be surprised how much cleaner and "in period" the car would look if you removed it. Try a quick photoshop and check.
Still a lovely car and a credit to you.

I was throwing the centre caps in for free. :-) You could always cover the Viking Rover emblem with some thing more relevant to your own car or perhaps sell them on yourself.

This is a full cover Guardian Guardlock steering wheel lock in excellent condition, perfect working order and with the two original keys. It works on the same principle as the well known Disklok by covering the FULL steering wheel. A robust and heavy duty piece of kit measuring 44.5cm high and 39cm wide. Original full instructions included. A serious looking theft deterrent and ideal for extra protection against the recent increase in older vehicle thefts. £29 inc. postage to a UK mainland postcode.
