Re: 330GT SII dunlop caliper rebuild or replace

Hi Michael,

If you want to have the original look it is best to resleeve the original units and have them cad plated. Most reproductions have either no dunlop markings or markings in the wrong font and size.

Greetings

Re: Rebuilding a pedal box and other parts

Hi Tom, fully agree and share your feelings. It is very satisfying to repair instead of buying new. Beside the F stuff our toaster got a new time switch and the washing machine some new bearings. One can not see it but instead of throwing this perfectly working things away they got a second life out...

Re: Where to find a wiper arm

You would need to choose the splined bajonette fitting and choose left or right crank as well as length. This information should be on their site. I know that GTO sells them.

Hope it helps

Re: Where to find a wiper arm

There are fitting substitutes from Tex in the UK. Not original but close. That is what some F related shops offer.

Re: Chrome bumber iron covers 250, 330…..??

Hi Cornelis,

just out of curiosity. Are the back ones on the PF also like the short ones in the picture?

Thanks

Hi Cornelis,
Hi Martin,

Thanks. Good to know that long ones are PF. Short ones are the same as mine on Gte S3 back.

Chrome bumber iron covers 250, 330…..??

Hello Tom,
Hello together,

I do have the pictured chrom bumber iron covers. The shorter ones are for the rear of the GTE and might fit others.

I do not know what model the longer ones came off? Any ideas?

Thanks

Dear All,

Anyone who could help for the Carello parts number for the head lamps of a Plexi Daytona? Are they the same as with the pop up setup?

Thanks a lot

Re: 330 Engine Bay- While You're In There Tasks

Would be great to see some pictures of the details in the engine bay as it is a low mileage survivor.

Thanks a lot

Re: 250 Gauges?

Dear Ed,

Thanks for the answer. I compared the gauges to some early Europa and TDF gauges and they look similar but for the writing. Just wondered what car they came off.

Thanks

Re: Daytona Brake Caliper Rebuild

With pistons really stuck I use a grease gun to get them out. I modified some bleeders to take the gun hose and others to close off openings, e.g. for brake lines. This works quite well for stuck pistons which cannot be removed by air. You just have to make 100% sure that no grease remains on parts ...
