I honestly didn't think that'd be worth more than $2k

**Indiana_Jones** · 28th May 2015, 21:50

They are getting a bit thin on the ground, I wouldn't part with that sort of coin. I'd part with $4k for a tidy one.

Rem rounds soon, here's hoping trolololol

Reads like a real hotch-potch of crap that will never run for more than a few Ks. You'll need to keep a mallet on the passenger's seat so you can knock it into first, when you get to the lights. BUT at that price, what the hell

If I needed another project (which I don't!) I'd buy it, cool-as!

A series only have 3 EX port exits. The other two are likely carb warmers.
Here is a B series Manifold Gasket

Two inlet 3 EX

Now that's an interesting exhaust manifold on a B series.....

It's MOWOG so genuine. There is no carb heating with twin carbs, the single carb on A & B had the centre port cast with the intake which heated the manifold. It was the expected thing for twin carbs to be a bit more fussy on warm up, you just put up with bogging and using more choke. Then people wanted to just turn the key and drive off. I've never seen one - probably for California and all their emission control crap.

Anyone close to Dunners should go to the Edgar Centre today for the car show. Some hot rods etc for those of you with goatees and the like but some classy Leyland vehicles like this one.

And there is a cool Allegro I have to get a photo of.

The ratted yellow All-aggro?

My car was parked opposite to that one. It was quite a funny car to behold, I quite liked it.

Yep, scuse the blurry nature of the photo, I was trying not to be seen.

If the red XK150 is yours I will swap you the above Vanden Plas for a weekend.
