Stator tube length
(Preview)
Having had to buy a new (second hand) stator tube can anyone tell me how far it should extend, if by anything, beyond the end of the nut that holds it in place on the lower end of the steering box. At present and with the steering wheel as far down the splines on the top of the column as it can go, the stator tube...

Non-standard radiator failure.
(Preview)
Sorry guys, missed the TR show. The radiator gave up 70 miles into the trip, and stranded me at Cambridge Services. It's a mercy that it didn't fail in the roadworks. For the first time in my Peerless/Warwick ownership Ive needed a two truck. However, the ali/plastic land rover rad is rubber mounted...

I have found an imperfect replacement for the original weatherstrips. I was about to throw the old, original away but thought I should post images of the originals. they are not fuzzy as I had originally thought and the rubber part is actually a Z shape,. -- Edited by maserich on Thursday 20th of June 20...

Look what the Easter bunny brought
(Preview)
An early Easter present and way better than a chocolate egg. Two new alloy fuel tanks, fitted with AN6 outlets, weld on ring for VDO dip senders to the inside AND foam filled. Don't know about the Easter bunny but I'm certainly happy.

More Easter bunny news
(Preview)
The little furry chap has been busy spending in Revingtons and has delivered me...... The first jolly update is steering box top plate RTR3075. This works really well. It replaces the peg with a sprung pin and removes most of the play due to wear around the straight ahead bit. The other update is geo...

Restoration of Chassis 86
(Preview)
Has anyone any idea of the bush size that fits around the bolt holding the front of the leaf spring to the chassis? The bolt and bush were rusted solid and had to be cut off when I stripped the car so I'll have to get new ones made up. I don't suppose they were a stock item.

Chassis 289 (200 XMF)
(Preview)
Hi everyone, just a quick note to let you know I've got this car, some of you may know it. It still has the V8 in it & runs but is a long way from road ready. I'm very busy so any king of restoration is going to be rather long winded but I'll try & update significant changes. Thanks, Bran.

Chassis #56
(Preview)
I am new to the "Peerless GT - Owners Club", but have been a Triumph fan for a great many years. My quest for a Peerless GT actually started with a desire for a Triumph Italia, however while looking for an Italia (searching for rare Triumphs), I ran across the Peerless GT. What a very neat car and my sites...

Bulkhead anomaly???
(Preview)
OK, it's not really the bulkhead but I need to ask the question anyway. I'm at the stage of preparing new metal to go intothe bulkhead (firewall, in the USA), floor and footwell sides and have come across something that I think may be a bit unusual. In most photos of chassis that I've found online, the fo...

Peerless #92
(Preview)
At the risk of having my son angry with me, I thought I might update all of you a bit on #92. I emptied all of the bits from the ****pit this weekend, plus the rear seat shell, so that I could get to a more fine-tuned assessment of things. I discovered that someone, not so long ago, may have paid some attention...

Chassis #213 - A long project

Now that I finally placed the refurbished body on the new chassis, I realized that I don't have a restoration thread on #213 on our own P&W forum. Turns out I started documenting my efforts on VintageMotoring.net, and never thought to cross post. Here is an early link to help tie in purchas...
