Re: Hi Beam Light in the Speedo

When I was doing the dash for my haf I looked at rolling a piece of plate in a crescent shape 5mm at the widest point narrowing to 0 to provide a surround for the speedo, this would have the effect of tilting the speedo up to make it easier to read. I got as far as making a template but didn't bothe...

Engine fettling

Hi chaps, Ive been out for the 1st drive only a mile or so but great fun.!! Even with the backfires.!

So points and timing set and it now starts on 1st crank thoug...

Re: Hemi the Haff.

Oh I like the idea of blade fuses, I did have a look about for a "period" looking blade fuse holder as I have some miniature resettable breakers that fit in the same space as a blade fuse but come up short in the time I had. Trouble is I'm a fiddler, and that dash is already the 2nd. 1st o...

Re: Hemi the Haff.

Hi, I've seen a number of dashboards and there are few that are the same, so I've decided to run with this as I have no experience so I'm feeling about with what is comfortable, it may change as it's easy to get my son to cut a new one on the laser :lol: I need to drive it a while and decide.. but t...

Dashboard

Here is my 1st attempt at a dashboard from 3mm Stainless Steel.
I'll run with this until I'm ready to paint and I'll replace this dashboard with a dash containing the Info placards.

Information plates/tags

Hi chaps is there anyone doing replacement label plates as the ones I have are past saving, I also require the large dashboard information plate but have been unable to find a supplier.
Haflinger technik don't have any in stock so I may end up having to get some made.

Re: Sloppy gear change

Thanks for the replies
I suspected there should be some sort of bushing, I checked and there are no bushings on the entire rod just clevis style pins in sloppy holes.!

another job to the list..!

Sloppy gear change

Morning All,
Just a quickie before I dive in on the weekend.
The gear selection on my haff is sloppy to say the least, with reverse selection a guessing game until the clutch is released are there bushes or any adjustments that can Improve matters.

Re: What is this switch

Ah ok I’ve got a white double pole single pull switch on the dash.
I’m in the process of re-doing the original wiring diagram I’ll have a look at the switches when I’m in work.

Thanks for the prompt reply 👍

Ok so after a messing about with Hemi driving it in and out of the garage I noticed he was dripping 🙄 so after a poke about I found there was a slight drip from the sump plate and from the rear off side drive shaft. Bought a gasket and drained the sump, oil was very dirty with the strainer needing l...
