There's no compression on the exhaust stroke.....😳😮😏🇬🇧

What happened did you inhale Helium because you sound like the chip munks

There's an order you need to use to get the correct tension. With the rear clips and bows in place, heat the top with a heat gun or in the sun then pull it forward to the leading edge and mark it with a china white pencil to give you an idea of where you want it to be, in the end the marked edge will more than likely go further around to get good tension. Hood attached to the rear and bows in place, pop the front clips, still within the hook just not locked. You could consider pushing the front bow froward to reduce tension if its cold, glue the front lip from centre outwards, you can tack glue this to check things before fully glueing. The outer corners should be glued after the front section, do this last. Dont pull to much out to the sides otherwise you'll have too much material there. Once glued but not set you can push the front bow back, and apply the front hooks partially to see how the tension is, you want it to be even. If it looks good then press and glue around to front edge, apply hooks to check final tension. Once you are happy you can trim excess vinyl and apply front metal place and seal. Getting the tension and distribution is the key, along with the correct glue and glue application. Like boat bamini covers, there's an order to applying the bows to get the correct tension.

Hoping to see it running in a few weeks! Good luck i'm in the same situation at the moment :D

Very boring video 👎

That engine is so small it can to go in a garden tractor

Thanks Peter. I can use any help I can get!😂

Hi Peter, I’m really struggling with this to be truthful. I finally got a spark at the plug but very weak! If you’re interested I can give you chapter and verse on how I got there; but I suspect you could have done it in a couple of minutes compared to my several hours. I feel hopeless with this stuff sometimes… it’s sheer stubbornness that keeps me going. 😊

Is it the earth wire earthing the baseplate?

I gave it a thumbs up, but not much content in this video. Just a couple of dudes looking an frame and engine.

And no electronics! Probably no brakes either!

Congratulations on your purchase! I had no idea that the Austin Seven had that type of rear suspension, by the way. I had assumed it had conventional leaf springs. I don't think I dare hazard a guess as to what to call this setup!

Good luck. It will be a project of love

cant put a price on history but you sir certainly stole it for $100 !

id buy it for 100

Me for a few seconds thinking "I didn't know they made a 7-cylinder"

I apologize if this sounds shrill and silly but I’ve watched half a dozen of the how to’s on mounting the MGB hood and all of them miss the point of how to. Can’t see anything.

What guy's video are you referring to? I just bought my hood and it looks like a pain to install it.

Great video!

Use contact cement, it will stay if you follow the directions. DON'T use self tapping screws through the aluminum strip, use rivets as is originally done, otherwise it is hard to get the sealing rubber in correctly.

Would be helpful if the camera actually showed what he's doing at the rear of the car!

That's no way to shoot a video, rotate the camera, you're not do a video call!

Can’t believe you got that thing moving again! Awesome progress!

❤😊 hi 👋

❤sweet

❤ love the music too

❤ love the MG

❤love it

Looks ace! Much better than white in my opinion

I suggest you install that roof in the sun !!!! I just bought a top for my 70. It is like the Mercedes cloth with no 1/4 windows cost me $ 1200 bucks !!! Had it shipped from England. So with shipping it was $ 1500. I say all this because I'm not taking any chance with it. It is going to a qualified upholsterer . Yours looks good !!

Where do you live I can help

Do you want to sell ?

Thanks for posting this up, I'm pondering the same job but not sure whether I'll try or not ....

Awesome! Great music in the background as well!
