Thought I recognised it, Jon Jolly's workhorse. He's kept the shiny one... Nelsthebass wrote: https://scontent-ams3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xtl1/t31.0-8/12419240_10153925059128346_1345261545755087912_o.jpg

 Re: New Project - 1966 Ami 6 Break
Correct! The M4 is veeeery slow uphills which is why I have been asking about M28 heads etc - can you swop out an M4 directly for an M28 without much issue with the gearbox?

A good M4 must be almost equal to an M28, at low rpm a good M4 outruns the M28.. Only at topspeed the M28 suddenly awakes... It should work fine as long as you use the M4 clutchplate... and you need an old 3 finger clutchhouse...

 Re: New Project - 1966 Ami 6 Break
Well spent all afternoon tinkering with the beast - wheels and blind are now a pleasing shade of black, fitted points assist and re-timed it and adjusted brakes so it now goes and stops really well - greased the greasy bits and splashed an amount of Kurust on the parts that shouldn't be rat look. Door locks and seat rubbers tomorrow - will post some more pics then....
