  1. You could have save yourself the work of the upper body....see this Berliet...😁
  2. Your domed brass nut looks a much like a Michelin wheelnut.
  3. Send a mail here they must know. https://vintage-headlamp-restoration.co.uk/
  4. Hi Ben, that was a good bargain, these are very nice carburettors, my Citroen 5HP has a similar one. Also with barrel throttle. The venturis are just bolted in so you change them to the right size. This belgian collector has a lot of old parts for sale as he is selling the lot of his collection. He only speaks french but Google translate is a good help. http://levidegarage.wifeo.com/ Regards Fer
  5. Light bulbs are usually measured in millimeters of base diameter. If the lamp has a bayonet fitting it will have a Ba prefix. So it could be like this: Ba 15 24V. If i see the bulb on the picture it looks like that for a fog lamp or long beam. If it has bayonet check if it is a 2 or 3 pin version. The one on the picture looks to have a spring clamp??? Good luck.
  6. Well it survived ww 1 and more so it can't be that bad. 😉
  7. Under the paint you wouldn't see wood rot?
  8. My 5hp has a helicodial one. (1925). But i have some rear axles that have the chevron ones in it.
  9. Belgian did swap frontwings to LR some times if they hadn't minerva ones available. Minerva club https://minervatt.be/
  10. Yes the smaller cars had this too. Even the 5HP cloverleaf. Later it was abandoned for cars. The Citroen Engrenages (pignons) company still exsists if i am correct .
  11. Front wings are not Minerva... 😉 I had one too.
  12. The car might be an McLaughlin/Buick a canadian make that became GM canada.
  13. I did see radiators turn up several times at the Reims oldtimershow. And yes they are large beasts completly in brass tubing.
  14. The Kegresses are interesting machines. Do have a look at the camions citroen site too. http://les-camions-citroen.easyforumpro.com/forum Minerva had this kind of radiator too. It was also used by the military. If it got pierced in battle you could plug a part of. p.s. As your car is a B2 so why not change the name in TonyB2 😉 Regards Fer
  15. Aha nice to see some pictures. So i can see what the wooden base looks like. The vendor didn't have that with it but it has 2 mirror heads.
  16. Yes it was made JM Glauser & sons London. It says Stereoscope universal W.D. nr. B729 1940 plus a Broad arrow. I can only find compasses by this maker.
  17. Some tome ago i did find this british 1940 stereoscope, but i can't find anything about it apart from this old RAF picture that seems to be the same? It came from Belgium so it may be left behind by the BEF? Ever seen this?
  18. Hi Tony, Yes i have 4 vintage citroens but helas i couldn't go to Ferte-Vidame, no days off left .
  19. Here with my danish friends you can get a lot of documentation. And some refabricated parts. https://kegresse.dk/
  20. If your parts book says BB wouldn't a gearbox from a Ford BB be easier to find? If the are the same of course.
