    My Dodges, both Ex Norwegian have cupro nickel brake pipes. The pipe from the master is coilded, I suppose for same reason. The pipe is very easy to shape around a former. Though squashing can be a problem. http://www.frost.co.uk/automotive-brakes-tools/brake-pipe-and-tube-bender.html could be a worth while investment.

    Good news its cured, bad news about cause. Though I can't see why an MOT inspector would remove a wheel. Maybe you hadn't found the right sort of bump? If you had a mixed set of radial and cross ply tyres that can cause all sorts of hurt. If I remeber back in the old days, Radial on the back, Cross Ply on the front and NEVER mix on the same axle. I had a similar thing thinking about it on my old Montego. The tyres looked fine but one had a flat spot and it would start juddering at certain speeds.

    Silly question, but does it have to be coiled?

    Welcome George, what re enactment do you do?

    I'll ask Phil where he got his from. I'm sure that some bus tyres use a suitable tube.

    With that that sort of knowledge you are making your self a hostage to fortune around here! Welcome in.

    Welcome George. Once the Cray Dutch have finished the washing up, no doubt you will get reams of information.

    Welcome in, you obviously have the bug. Never enough toys.

    What does it actually say on the VL5? In theory that's what is on the big disc somewhere in Wales.

    Help and DVLA, two words very rarley conjoined. Though in thier defence Sidcup local office have ben very helpful to me.

    :nono: It's not on you know! Regardless of how you feel, you must NOT try to intimidate the MOT inspector!

    Welcome, what a fascinating subject. This is the original open one at Battrie Lothreign in Jersey Channel Islands, and a replica of the final armoured cupola 6 m Zeiss . .

    Out of intrest would you use a modern flushing agent on an engine that old? I be concerned that take to much muck out and the seals would leack.

    I need a set of those straps as well. Thanks for reminding me. I have cable ties under the straps on my WC51, just in case someone gets to intrested. Harbour security whilst waiting to board ferry at Portsmouth 'Have you any knives orthings on your vehicle?'. I was leaning against the back by the pionner tool rack at the time.

    Welcome in. Your'e mistake was being seen with Joris! :-D

    When you actually delve into the MOT, its suprisng how many things are either exempted or have special tets. Ambulance Class 4 regardless of weight is one example I know of. Opening windscreen, no wipers required, or washers, not folding, opening.

    Any commercial tyre place should be able to help.

    Last time I went to Bovvy libary, they did ask you to phone in advance and make an appointment. It also gives the librain a chance to dig out what you want, so saves a lot of your time. I got a lovley set of pictures of Dodges in British service from them, then just paid for the enlargements I specificaly wanted. Do ask before you post any of thier pictuires on the web, it's polite and provided you acknowledge where they came from normally no problem.
