rampant rivet

I am afraid that you are not the only struggling to join the hmvf, not sure why this is happening at the mo, but welcome anyway :-D

Will measure dia of pipe and take some pics of my set up tomorrow :-D

Doh just realised they may not be the same ,may have a spare one isn't shed will look tomorrow and take a pic for comparison

Hi Dave There was some cheap ones on eBay a while back, bought a pair to go on my Champ . RR.

Hi Dave Here are the parts for your horn thingy First picture shows roughly how it goes together ( sideways ) The spring may be a bit on the strong side and may need adjusting.

I have what I believe to be a NOS.fuel pump for a morris commercial truck not sure which engine it was fitted to as I'm not a morris man £25 plus p&p and it's yours .

Sorted :-D

Looks new just a bit tarnished from storage

I'm sure I have a used one in the garage I'll have a look in a mo

An evening down't shed and it looks like the water pump issue is sorted thank goodness, ignition lamp now does what it should and learnt to check the fuse in the voltage regulator when the generator stops charging the battery, refurbished pick handle and shovel fitted in cab :-D

Hi Dave here is a rough diagram of how I think the horn button parts go together

Am looking for a workshop manual for a CS 8 plus a pair of aeroscreens if anyone has a pair or knows of any ,help much appreciated. Cheers RR.

Ok Dave will sort something you are correct about the washer that's how I did mine

Hope this is of some use Dave I may have the centre isolator and I found the nut that holds the steering wheel on the other day.

Hi Dave There is a good sectional drawing on the back page of the early bedford mw parts manual, will try and scan and post it on here. RR.

Thanks Guys But there is still a lot to do ,tool bin, fuel can bckts to make and fit and I am still missing the early engine panels, plus the loom to complete and the water pump has decided to leak ! at least I have another 6 months to go before next year's shows start.

At last it moves, today was the day it moved under its own power for the first time in years As its tight up against some shelving I had to drive her out to be able to complete the rear wheel arch and timber work to the drivers side of the body. I must admit I did have a bit of a smile on knowing that the clutch seems to be ok and it has 4 gears and reverse. I also managed to get the horn push assembly sorted and after replacing the new non working horn with the original item it now has a toot.

Thanks Wally Will get and order some. Cheers RR.

Thanks for the info, any idea what the commercial size/type is as I need to buy some modern equivalent.

Sorry this has probably been asked elsewhere previously but I would like to know what size / type of bulb fits the ignition switch for my Bedford MW ? Thanks RR.

Thanks Richard Will get some ordered today RR.

I have a number of 12 volt dynamos / generators lucas type D45 that need new bearings can anyone tell me the the correct serial numbers please I think the smaller ones SKF 6202 but am not sure on the larger one. Thanks RR.

Looking good Danny

One plate is AM but no idea what it's off the other I am researching as regards to your door timber sorry no sign of it so far. Great day down't shed today temp gauge fitted, rad filled, brakes bled and after a bit of fettling managed to get some electricity from batttery to coil and had the engine running again but ran out of time before I could take it out of the workshop for the first time maybe weds.

Well some more progress , have fuel in the tank and up to the carb, oil in engine, diff and gearbox, just the temp and oil gauge to fit then I can fill the rad. brake bleeding next then possibly get the old girl out of the shed for the first time in a while. Have also fitted new rubber seals to the steering linkage, a job I should have done a while ago but have only just got around to, and have greased all my nipples a lovely job !!!!! Popped down to Ross on sat to our local auto jumble and though the weather was foul managed to find some goodies not much Bedford related but some nice NOS. levers for the Norton and a nicely sectioned mills bomb.
