Another newbie

Postby dazza » Mon Jul 01, 2013 10:05 pm

:hallo: Hi guys, another newbie here. I've owned my HB for about 20 years but for about the last ten it's been in the garage under going a very slow restoration. I joined up here for some fresh enthusiasm and some ideas. I like a lot of stuff in the mods section and am hoping you guys may be able to help with some tech questions as I get onto the engine rebuild.

Probably lots of really stupid questions coming soon!

It's an HB SL, most of the panel work has been done so it is time just to pick a new colour and get it painted. It has a 1256cc ohv engine with twin strombergs on a brabham manifold, I have a few other tuning parts for the engine that I have collected over the years but have not done anything other than repair work to an engine before so that is where advice will be greatly appreciated. One thing that will confirm membership is, do I get a really cool widow sticker? :wink:

Almost forgot, the plate is NET248G. A good old Rotherham plate (the next town over) The mayors car has ET1 which caused a stir when a popular old film was released.
