Latest on this is that the existing casing is deemed beyond repair. I have located another Amazon ENV casing, but that would need to be adapted to take the front mounting, which is problematic as it is cast iron. Latest plan is to adapt a MGA diff, which has similar dimensions - and would have the benefit of enabling different ratios.
Has anyone tied this or anything similar??
Many thanks

The threaded section of the "nose" to the differential on my Greyhound has cracked, as shown on the attached photo.
Although it should be possible for it to be welded up, Hardy Engineering, who have dismantled it, regard it as something of a design issue, which needs to be strengthened lest it happen again. They wonder about the possibility of constructing a mount wrapping round the diff case to provide additional rigidity.
Has anyone experienced the same problem and tried strengthening the design in any way?
Any thoughts most welcome!
Many thanks

Ace 'Brooklands' Forum / Radiator Top Hose

My top hose has sprung a leak, and Redline Engineering tell me that they were manufactured specifically for the Ace and are no longer available.
Any ideas anyone?

Ace 'Brooklands' Forum / Parts List
January 30, 2023, 20:43:53
Hello All
I am the new owner of the car sold by Historics in November last year, L500ACE, as company for my Greyhound.
The weather since then has been such that it has not yet seen a great deal of use, but so far so good.
Looking back over the forum entries, I see that there has been some discussion regarding a list of the parts used in common with other cars. If there is such a list, could someone provide me with a copy please?
Specifically, does anyone know a source for the rubber boot which goes over the radio aerial? Mine has pretty much disintegrated.
Many thanks
Andy
