I was up until 2.30am on Sunday night looking at Hot rods and Rat rods* on Youtube. They just look so much fun. My favourite : 1923 Ford T- bucket in Black. Adams family style.:icon_smile: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...uOgfvvzBk#t=8s * - (same but the bodywork/chassis is deliberately left rusty) . Those cars are just insane! One guy just put it in to gear at tick-over and spun his wheels up - on tick-over!!!! |

There will not be many Cabrio owners, as most have fitted Ford (some BMW M20) engines, and will have been able to utilise the bigger standard Ford servo. Madabout contributors who might (?) be interested: MSportster (Patrick) Morris (Ian) Glen .......any others? Are people happy to source their own clevis? I am happy to source a job lot and post at cost if the interest is there? |
Oh and count me in for the clevis pin, not sure if I need it it but hey, it might be needed.
If you want any money up front, happy to oblige. Don't want anyone out of pocket on my behalf. |
Dual servo
Hi guys...from a single comment about a dual servo to the fantastic engineering efforts of all involved, a big congrats ...please include me in all parts needed to complete, I also would be happy to finance in advance.A great example of the benefits of this forum!

I have enjoyed being able to give something back to all those who have contributed through this and other forums and helped me so much with my own build. I hope we can get a few more interested yet.................. Regards Mike |
Mike
Great efforts on this, looks like a good solution to the poor brakes problem. Add me to the group buy list if it goes ahead. Booster, Adapter Plate and Long Clevis. Regards John |

Whoa, haven't logged in for a few days and missed all this. You can put me down for servo in whatever finish is available provided it's not bright green or something else non-metallic or black.
I kind of got a bit lost while quickly reading through the backlog so I'll take advice as to whether I need an adaptor and longer clevis. I'm going for an E30 cylinder with the res on top as BMW intended so as that's the same as Mike, I guess it's a yes on both items |
Things move so fast on here I think I'm out of breath...................!
I'm not sure what I'll need at the moment but put me down for an adaptor plate and clevis as well please. Nigel |
Update
Hi All
Quick Update
Mike |
Personally I think it would be better to produce the adapter plate just with the holes for fixing it to the servo. Its not a huge job to drill and countersink two holes for the master cylinder fixings and I suspect there is quite a variation of master cylinders in use out there as Marlin changed their preferences more than once.
On another front there seems to be plenty of places in the US that will sell you a servo directly but the cost of delivery to the UK is eye watering.... Cheers Robin |

Paul at Duksville suggested his source came from Taiwan - does anyone have contacts out there?! Mike |

Hey Mike,
You've got me down for 2 servos. It might be a good idea but I think I'll struggle with space.........................!! Just the one will do me fine. Cheers Nigel |
Again I missed a load of stuff by not visiting in a couple days! I need to be less busy :)
Please count me for all 3 items :) stainless servo if it's not too much more than zinc. |

No problem! I need to be more busy........(at work)!! Mike |
