Broken spark plug wire clips from late SY and SZ cars are a real bummer; The original plastic injection molding lends itself to problems with engine temps and they just break constantly. We think that we have found the ultimate solution in reproducing these from canvas phenolic. The fit is awesome and they should last for many years to come!

It's Test-Fit Tuesday in the underground garage! Checking bonnet, grille, fender, and front apron panels. Lead work required for the perfect grille fit!

Crusty SC/S master cylinders. These are impressive, but there have been instances there is almost nothing left 😳 as the aluminum casting simply erodes away. Brake fluid will eventually start to weep through the casting--when this happens we believe in simply replacing them--not rebuilding them.

SY strut on our spring compressor and ready for install 🫣

SC/S brake servo shipped to us for rebuild 🔧👊

**Originality Alert** Probably one of the best preserved SY battery boxes that we have stumbled across. Note the rope that has survived in the bottom--that is what stops the heavy battery from breaking the plastic! Correct size and configuration 27-series battery for reference. 🙂

This is the gravity light switch for all SC/S cars. It is filled with Mercury 💫 It is often refit by shops backwards, so instead of coming on when the trunk is raised is goes off, but will instead stay on when the trunk is closed and drain your battery 🤪. This has been your proper motor car public service announcement. 💂‍♀️🛠🔩🚘

New S2 flywheel inspection cover with correct 2BA beveled washers and cheesehead screws 😍 These are commonly removed and then thrown away 😅. So we make more 😇 We deviated slightly and used stainless steel plate 🤗. We have a few extras if you need one!

03/02/2023

S1 sump removed due to leaks and clean out. When removed we found the old gasket was recycled and simply siliconed back in place 😌😳 No matter, we ordered a new gasket! Cleaned the sump pan, treated the casting to some additional sealant and refit it better than new! 😊

Running a new liquid line for a new A/C system exposed a rather dusty and untidy heater box, so we cleaned and sealed it with our Wurth gravel guard system. Came out nice!!!

Wishing everyone a happy holiday season and a Merry Christmas!

CAREFULLY! pumping a wheel cylinder piston out with grease saves these for another turn around the drum.

Late stainless steel SC/S hubcaps ready for install. We have tooled up and produced a jig to hold these and a fixture to better straighten their jagged and sometimes damaged edges. The jig will work for SC or SY cars. Let us know if you have any that need help!

Silver Cloud II driveshaft parts ready for assembly!

Exhaust manifold heat shields were fit to late SCII and SCIII models on the A-bank of cylinders to keep heat away from the brake fluid reservoirs and heater hoses. These are a really nice upgrade for the earlier cars so we are making some extra sets, pictured is our prototype.

12/02/2022

More heat season inspired work. Rebuilt flap actuators and water taps for a very late Silver Cloud II.
