I should put a few miles on before anything else. Seatbelts to be fitted also.In the correspondance which came with the car there is mention of mounting points "in the upper rear panel". I can't see any ! Advice welcome once again. Richard

Lovely. You would think they might clean up the other surfaces too while they were at it!

As there was no charge from the machine shop I will be happy to clean the other surfaces myself. I understand the discs had developed particularly hard surfaces being cast iron. richard

Yes - and it's now on its way to the U.K.
4.7 litre V8 and weighing about 1400 pounds - it should go like the clappers!

A few small jobs done recently. I have installed an ammeter under the dash to monitor the charging system and installed a rear fog lamp. The fog lamp is operated by a temporary switch in the cigar lighter apperture. When I find a Flaminia PF wiper switch I will use that instead (with a remote warning lamp) which should suit the dash better. Something else I might change is the fuel filter. In it's place I woulld like to try a combined filter/pressure regulator(with glass bowl) as fitted to some other Flaminia models along with an electric fuel pump for primig. One other thing I have done is route the engine breather pipes to a catch tank rather than into the airfilter housing.

I have now found a switch from my jumble of spares. By good fortune the knob of the now spare lighter has the same thread. So will need to install a fog lamp warning lamp somewhere next.

I would like to replace the rear discs soon, with the pair which I have had machined. Can anyone tell me if this job can be done with the tranaxle in situ? Best Regards Rchard

Existing rear discs still in service, but new brake pipes fitted at rear, and brake piston assemblies stripped, cleaned and refitted
