  12. My storm has no numbers on it My DBP has a B
  13. For years I slogged 12 - 14 hours per day 7 days a week, I've earned the right to kick back and do as I please
  14. Now put the negative probe of the meter on the negative of the battery and put the red lead into each of the terminals on the plug, do you get a voltage reading?
  15. I don't have one, tbh I've collected loads of bits ready but the cars are basically as I bought them so nothing to see really, its taken me 2 1/2 years to get my DBP (totally original) car back on the road for financial and time reasons (I've spent 12 years restoring a house from dirt floor, bare brick upwards and there's still jobs to do and money to spend on it), once you sorn them its too easy to put off recommissioning them, I'm just happy to have it in use at the moment.
  16. The pic gives you an idea how much room there is behind THs Shout up if you want some measurements
  17. I wanted covers, the electrician said don't bother, you'll only break them. The sockets on the wall were filled as well. I'm glad I wasn't stood in front of it TBH
  18. With the DBP VR6 currently road worthy and being rained off from out door DIY duties I decided to compression test Grimmys old classic green storm. With a fully charged battery and all sparkplugs out I put the compression tester into cylinder one and cranked it, there was a bang and all electrics in the garage and house went off! I was a bit mystified until I looked up

  20. Why don't you just put it back on the road and use it? Its been for sale for so long maybe that's what putting people off? If it was mine I'd sell the wheels and interior and retro fit speedos and cloth, standard grill, rear lights and ditch the tinted number plates and relist as a wolf in sheeps clothing etc No offence meant:)
  21. There's loads of these knocking about should you break yours. The screws under the spoiler (2 each side) often seize and there captive nuts turn in there housings, douse the nuts with penetrating oil before you commence removal and allow it to soak in If you remove the inside boot cover you'll find a black bow tie shaped piece of plastic, pull it towards you and it dislocates from the motor spindle, turn it and it raises and lowers the spoiler, you can then see if the motor is weak or the mechanism binding. I thought there was a wiki on this but I can't find it?
  22. I once changed a column on a Volvo 740 due to the horn constantly going off due to the previous owner abusing the column and then disconnecting the horn due to its poor behaviour. I reconnected the wire for the MOT and rather chuffed with myself set off for a retest only for the horn to sound on every bend in the road...... After I swapped the column I read the Haynes manual and found a measurement to set the length of the column, I suspect a similar measurement is available for the Corrado?
  23. Hennys 1990 H had late wings and bonnet, the wings were stuck to the inner wings with sealant and I could find no signs of previous removal of early wings. Early dash too and the interior he sold prior to me buying the shell was early also.
