The 289 Register

There is a picture of an original white grp bubbletop-style hardtop on 240 DPE, which I think is a Bristol-powered Ace on p.59 of AC Heritage by Taylor & Burn. Its difficult to see inner detail, but I'd hazard a guess thats its just plain GRP. I have just started adapting a bubbletop for the Crendon...

ah OK, must be a slightly different product. Mine was designed to have a door switch that on a nomrla car would be de-pressed to start the arming process, so I wired in a latching switch to make it work. Anyway, irrelevant now.

Just a thought....as I have a similar unit.:
How have you dealt with the 'door switch' which primes the unit? If this is done incorrectly it wont arm properly.

Just in case this is useful...

I deliberately wired in some 'secret' multiway plugs so that when/if mine goes south I can unplug it and still drive.

Hi Simon,
I assume you mean everything except Hawk Cars and chassis no.?

- exactly what was needed on my replacement chassis plate Anthony made for me, after the one supplied originally failed.

Enjoyed reading your article Peter.
Where was the rolling road located that you used?

Thanks Nik - I have seen those loops, and often wondered what they were for.
- and yes indeed, opposite sides of the car (placed according to 'TightArse')

Loving the look of the Horn Section - should sound good!
