Today, the original oil filter assembly was reinstated, next one will be the fuel filter assembly.  In that light, can anyone recommend a close to original fuel hose.  I have attached a picture of the engine compartment of the Le Mans Roadster.

Thank you in advance for your replies,

Well, I am not sure I would ever put the top up, it just that I need it to have a complete car.  I have found most of the pieces, including a trimmer to make the hood but cannot source the bows, where did you have them made?  Or, do you still have the regular ones, I would be happy to purchase them from you?

Good afternoon Ben,

Yes, the bag is being remade, you can see it here https://www.liverpoolmotorworks.com/menu.php?id=13.

Would you know the sizes of the spanners?

Thank you in advance,

Pascal

Car came with original tonneau cover and side screens with bag but no soft top, or frame.  Happy to purchase in any state as I would prefer an original.

Thank you in advance,

Pascal

Good morning everyone,

I recently purchased an extremely original 1957 Ace Bristol at the RM Auction in Monterey, see https://rmsothebys.com/auctions/mo24/lots/r0156-1958-ac-acebristol/.  She was stored for 41 years, from 1970 until 2011.  I am missing a few items (subsequent post!) and would love some additional information.  The car will not be restored anytime soon, if ever, but will be fully reinstated to original as well as being mechanically 100% in order.

For one, I would appreciate a list of the contents of the tool kit, as well as a picture or two?  I have sourced a replica of the tool bag from Liverpool Works already.  Feel free to point out non-original items (the front indicator lights for example.)  We have already sourced an original set of PF700 Lucas.

Thank you in advance for any and all replies.

Very Best,

Pascal
