Manuals for one of these are surely available? Will help with torque specs for a rebuild and maybe even parts supply. Actually my Mrs surprised me yesterday with a Compagno owners manual!!  Has most of the information I need in it I think so super excited about that. Although it will possibly end up with the 1.3 out of the same year bluebird parked next to it if it's not an easy fix or the bits search takes a long time.. Wow, what a find!

Not an update on the Compagno so much as an update on the shed, but I bought a new toy and I'm rather pleased with it. So I thought I'd be happy about it on here. Also, if you're anywhere near Dartmoor and you need some tyres fitting, chuck me a message and I'll stick the kettle on.  And have a picture of the shed at present for good measure. Shonk everywhere, it's got a little out of hand... π

Bloody hell, that's one hell of a space! Yeah, it's not bad! I've been very lucky finding here. Rent is cheap, landlord is awesome, and I've managed to move into the lovely 3 bed cottage behind the shed too, so when I get carried away until 3am under the car my bed is only 2 minutes away now. Living the dream. No Compagno update really, as I've been plumbing the hydraulic handbrake into the skid toy today. I feel like I should make a thread for all the stuff I do in the shed.. it would be quite comprehensive I feel.

I had one of those Daihatsu Dominos when I moved to Ireland. Maximum speed is 68mph, which was handy as I lived in Leitrim which had no roads with a speed limit above 60.

I took mine over 60 twice I think π overwhelming fear of engine implosion led me to not push it any further..

Great cars and great shed. Can you give us a rundown of what's in there? Thanks dude!! Shed inventory as of right now is as follows; Perodua Kenari Prefacelift K11 Micra on 12s AW11 MR2 NA Eunos nice drift car Hijet '67 Bluebird LHD '85 G11 Charade '86 G11 Charade '86 Domino '86 Domino '72 MGB NA MX5 NB MX5 practice skid car LDV Convoy beavertail 06 Audi A3 (don't judge me, it's a flipper. Do a buy..!) And of course a positive mountain of tat, most of which bought off our beloved Kev From Wales on drunken evenings at RRG! Also have a Toyota New Horizon Nova Star, a Sirion SL, an EP91 Starlet and a couple others that don't fit in the shed at present.. We're working on that..
