Travelling through my local shopping centre yesterday I came across this Motorhome built on a 1966 BMC badged Austin 1800 sedan which has been lengthened but still retains the hydrolastic suspension. I originally thought it was based on a Ute chassis but being early 1966 it predates the factory utes by over a year. Owner has recently purchased this and is travelling around New Zealand. He told me it drives very well and invited me inside which is nicely finished and I can stand up straight with clearance (I'm 6' 3"). I also came across a similar motorhome 25 years ago just outside Christchurch NZ based on a Austin Tasman and a stretched Austin Kimberley limo in Rotorua in 1998 but no photos of these. Robert Goodall Kowhai Imports Box 308 Motueka 7143 New Zealand 1- http: //byl16w . bayl1 6 .mail.live.comJmail!ReadMessageLlght,a~px?lWOOM~§iH~~l4=7 :: : ~/W/W{)7 Mk 1 Oil Filter For some time now I have been moaning about the cost of Mk 1 oil filters, and the fact that they have to be ordered in so I can't just buy the bits on the day I intend to service. I figured that there must be a way of modifying the existing filter set-up to take a Z3 or similar. Then, while looking around on e-Bay I found a gadget for the Mkl MG. From the pictures on the net it looked like it might work, and on contacting the seller (the auction had finished) he too thought it might fit. Better than that, he said that it was a stock item, and if it didn't fit I could return it for a full refund. I parted with $65.00 and ordered the parts. Fig 1: The 235-940 Spin-on Oil Filter Adaptor Kit The kit includes one oil filter, which is not a Z3, but a common one used on Toyota's and other Japanese cars (I'm told). I had bought a Z3 to tinker with while trying to work out how to make something, and to my surprise it fitted the thread perfectly, and matched up with the seal on the fitting. The instructions were very clear, with colour pictures and the kind of information that only an enthusiast would include ("Look under the old gasket, sometimes there will be another that wasn't removed when other work was done"). Fig 2: 12G2400EVA (U8998) vs L30001 (Z3) Having a look at what was under the bonnet caused some worry-the banjo attachment on the existing aluminium part was at about a 30 deg angle, the replacement came out straight. In the instructions it showed a flexable hose, not the steel one fitted to a r Landcrab. After a chat with Patrick Farrell I decided that I would try to re-bend the oil line, and if it kinked, cut it off and get some flexable oil hose from Enzed or Supercheap. Being the sensible type and having a spare very early Mk 1 engine stashed at the school I teach at, I decided to go and fetch it's oil line. That way I'd have a back-up if things went really pear shaped. Surprise surprise the oil line off that motor matched what I wanted exactly, no bending, no cutting, and no swearing! Top of picture, off the early motor, travels a different path to the later one, and looking at the aluminium attachment, the banjo connector comes out at the same angle as the replacement. (You can't realy see that in the picture) Fig 4: Two different banjo fittings Of course things were going too well to last. I fitted the part and connected the oil line, things were looking good. Then I tried to put the Z3 oil filter on. Guess what, it's diameter was about 2mm to big, and fouled the block. Now was the time to swear, until I remembered the supplied filter. It fitted. I would have preferred the big, beefy Z3, but at least the U8998 fits and is readily available. Fig 5: Attached. Fig 6: It doesn't fit! Fi!! 7: Oil filter fitted.

But because the car has a negative earth system and all new electronic gear is positive they are unable. Well why not change the earthing system of your car, it's as easy as A, B, C. Step A: disconnect the battery; Step B: reverse the battery connections, so that the negative terminal is connected to the car body; Step C: connect a wire to the battery positive and spark the other end to the 'F' terminal of the dynamo; Step D: remove any old clocks and radios; Step E: reverse the connections to the coil and ammeter (if fitted) . You can now fit your modern electronics to the car with no danger. A good idea is to put a sign under the bonnet to warn other people of the change of battery polarity.

  • 30Yearsoftre Austin 1800
    The British Motor Corporation (Australia), released the Austin 1800 onto the local 30YEARSOFTRE market on the 22nd November 1965, just thirteen months after the model's release in the UK. During the extra months develop­ AUSTIN 1800 ment, various modifications were made to the car. These modifications were later to be incorporated into the UK models. The 1800 soon became a popular car, even being voted the Modern Motor's best compact of the year, in fact the interior space inside the car still leaves almost all other cars far behind (with the exception of Rollers etc). In Australia approximately 60,000 Austin 1800 were produced. The Austin 1800 had various rallying success in its time including a win in the Southern Cross Rally (1969), and coming second (beating Falcon GT's and Porsche), and sixth, in the 1968 London to Sydney A rare care in Australia is this Austin 3 litre, a large car with 6 cylinder conventional drive using the Marathon. Automatic versions of the 1800 1800 body. It was only built in England for 8 months. The car pictured was shipped to Adelaide. On were released in February 1968 followed by the right, a British 1800. M. J. Foster sent us this picture (see RC#53 letters). He was from Essex in England. The Austin 3 litre built in 1967-8 was not a popular car. A 2200cc transverse OHC six car a utility version in July of the same year. was produced in the UK in 72 (similar to Kimberly Tasman in Australia) and was more widely accepted Later in the same year (Oct.) the Mk II sedan there.

Well not intending to insult Targa Owners, except for some colour changes they are pretty much all supers with V8, T Bar Auto and LSD Diff with a few transfers. So what’s left, is it the colour? There’s not many Hairy Also in this issue we have an Aussie perspective look at Limes or Plum Loco’s out there but this isn’t it.
