THING OF BEAUTY!

METAL PRIMER

Here’s a great weld-thru primer. It’s called 70-49 Metaflux Copper Spray and it is a high-density metal-coating that gives superb conductivity.

MOKE BACK IN UK

It’s a real shame I think that the newly announced Moke won’t be available in kit-form but it is very specialist and it deserves a place within these pages. Fact is whenever you see a Moke parked somewhere you’ll usually see a crowd around it.

The new version will be available in the UK until the 56 examples are sold. In case you were wondering, the Moke is 56-years old this year. The company behind it is run by ex-Jaguar Land Rover and BMW executive, Isobel Dando and have been supplying them to companies and individuals in the Caribbean, where they More >

TREMEC SHIFT ENHANCER

If the gearshifter on your Tremec manual transmission doesn’t feel like it should make it better with a Lokar AxiShift Shifter Adapter. It lets you position the shift lever exactly where you want for smooth, positive gearchanges.

That makes it perfect for transmission swaps in kitcars and older vehicles where the shifter position is often less than ideal.

The AxiShift bolts to the transmission shifter stub. The shift lever bolts to a stub on the AxiShift attached to a pivot ball assembly that provides 360 degrees of rotation and 15 degrees of tilt in any direction. The AxiShift also gives you the More >
