Hi Rob if you put the 2cv gearbox in the Dyane it will be slower...but stronger to tow something.

Well the car has been delivered to Pete Sparrow over in Hereford.
I'm hoping he will do the Belgian Arm modification and give the Dyane an independent inspection and maybe more. Will have to wait as he is very busy..

Picked up the car on the 6th February, a quick turnaround!

These are the pictures they took of some of the works.
While it was there I asked for soundproofing and waxoyling and he noticed the carb needed jetting etc. I had new tyres as well. Pete Sparrow reccomends 30psi. all round, certainly makes the car firmer. New kingpins were fitted as well. All this was not cheap but as I want to go travelling in it around Europe I am very glad to have it sorted for the future. I am very happy with Sparrow Automotive, the customer care is just what I wanted. Onward and forward, at higher speeds now :lol: :lol:

Sounds amazing. What's the Belgian arm modification for?

Oh I see, it's braced isn't it. How clever. And indestructible.
