Hi Alan,
thanks for the info on the calipers and well done with the car - is it staying in the UK?Someone has certainly got a nice motor there and I always thought that blue suited the Keeble.

I am looking into the early reversing lights for no.11 at the moment - the ones it had were a bodge up so I`d like to try and get as near to original for replacements.Three GK owners have sent me pictures and some details which has been a great help plus the Secretary has told me they were a modified period car accessory.Any more pictures of early cars with the under bumper reversing lights would be really appreciated and thanks to everyone who has helped out with this so far.

Tony.

The car is definitely sold and is going on Wednesday, if all goes according to plan. Don't want to break any confidentiality, but it is going to an Associate Member of the club, and it will be staying in the south of the country.

As the car is now fitted with a 350 engine, and the new owner did not want to take the 'old' 327 engine as well, it is now looking for a new home.

Does anyone want a complete 327 engine? It does need some work to the heads, but if there is any interest, make me an offer.

The 327 engine has now sold.

Just need to check now what else I have in the garage, that might be of interest to GK owners!

Now that #60 has gone, I have unearthed the spare rear tail lights I have. These look in very good condition and are the mark 11 version (as well as for the Ferrari 250 GTE).

I will post some photos of them over the weekend, but contact me if you are interested and want to make an offer. They will go on eBay in a few days, if there is no interest on here!

Some pics of the pair of tail lights. The lenses look good and the chrome has a few small blemishes and one minor flake/chip on one side.









Any offers, before they go on eBay?

Hi Keeble Kid,

The engine bay looks really impressive and well done for doing it with the body on, the joys of having big disc cutters and would never be without our Plasma cutter...

Forgot to post on here but we finished the Ch#30 mid-February.... It was in the garage for 2 1/2 months but was fitted in as and when...Just sat waiting to got to our powdercoaters in Birmingham now.... Just re-building all the running gear now...

Please see below for final pictures.

Hi Daryl,
thanks for the compliments on 97`s engine bay - the work on 30 looks fantastic and is that another Keeble I can see in the background in one of the photos?I have told your Dad (Terry) I will come and visit when we have moved back down to Kent.

Cheers - Tony.

Hi Tony,

Ha ha...I did wonder if anyone would spot it! You'll find it was Ch#06 having some work done...
That one has gone out but Ch#58 has now taken its spot...

Hi all Keeblers,

Please see below pictures, my dad (Terry J Harris) has now made new replacement rear axle link bars and Chassis mounts... We can also make the turrets that mount on top and below the rear axle...

We can send you the bars in the post as a set or singular with or without bushes (from GKOC)....also the mounts!

Or can drop the car into dad for the once over before that summer sun comes out, don't wanna see any GK axle sat by the side of those A roads...

Terry - 0207 328 5337
London, NW6

Regards Daryl.
