We have had a lot of feedback from our post last week about the evil ethanol now in our fuel. As a result we have had a few pictures via email of the inside of their rubber hoses. If it has damaged the hoses, you can guarantee that damage is elsewhere too. We have sold a good few meters of the ethanol proof fuel hose we stock, for either 3/8″ or 5/16″. Various fuel filters for the classics and newer cars have seen a bit of a surge in sales too. We are pleased that the article has made people think to go and check their pride and joy, not because we want to sell you stuff, but from a safety point of view. We have a tip for you; if you can squeeze the fuel lines flat with your fingers easily, check and be ready to change them.

The ’67 fastback rear end has been the focus this week to get the panels properly welded into place, red lead treated and then another undercoat for premium protection.

Once the red oxide had dried it was time to mask up and add some seam sealer before the underseal.

Our special formula for the underseal is applied to give some proper protection from rust. Yes, they were just red oxide originally, but with the salt and wet weather in the UK, any additional protection is welcome.

It’s at this final stage where missing little bits can allow debris to collect and eventually cause issues. It pays to take your time and get it right.

We have been stocking up on a new style starter motors and now have one or two in stock. We have everything from classic to moderns, auto and manual, high torque to standard, top brands to Enos.

The same can be said for the latest batch of K&N filters for all Mustangs from the first to the latest.

We have also stocked up on a few more Holley EFI kits, just a few variations to choose from. As word gets out just how good these kits are, we are starting to sell these more regularly. Performance, efficiency and reliability, what more could you ask for?
