JowettTalk

Hello again Keith.
I clicked Personal Albums/Ian Aitken-Kemp/Topics to get the g_id thing. If I click on Ian's cars instead of Topics the photos come up.

Hi Keith,
Ian A-K's posts show:-
g_id=40676,_ /PersonalAlbums/1942kemp1942,_ 1942kemp1942,_ and no pictures.

Perhaps you'd like to know,
Tony.

Well Ken, you kept that one quiet!

Hello David. I have a large tin of original Jowett bolts from the several pre-war Jowetts that I have dismantled over the years. I agree with you about the quality. They also just seem to 'feel right'. I seem to remember that Jowett made their own nuts and bolts in the pre-war years at least, but I'...

Hilary and myself hope you all have a very Merry Christmas, and an extraordinary 2024.

Hello again Chris. The videos are really good, and one can see exactly what the problem is. Whilst I was looking at one of them, a thought came into my head. Now this is only a hypothesis, and a second opinion would be welcome, (or even a third, fourth etc.), and I don't mind being told it's not the...

I have in my bits box, a bag of various items for replacement contacts, part No. 255912 to Lucas starter switches models ST900 (solenoid operated) and ST10 (manually operated). Below are both sides of the paper instructions to help you along. I have no idea myself what they are used for, but if any ...

Hi Chris, and thanks for the video. From what I can see, the box doesn't seem to have the rubber mounting bush that Barry talks about. Still, following the instructions as how to tighten the gear on the end of the column by turning the steady tube is something you can do without removing the box fro...

Hi Chris.
Hope you're back safely.
Here's a scan that may be of help, but it's from the early 30's box.
After you've perused it, there may be other suggestions that could be made.
Is your box held to the cross tube with a couple of flanges rather than a Metalastic bush? Tony.

Hello Chris.
Try a search in Pre-war for Shackle wear.
Is your steering box similar to the types in the photo in the discussion?
Tony.

Ready to go tomorrow in 'Mary Ellen'.
Tony.

I've just come across this.
Maybe it's been here before so please forgive me.

Hi Chris. It may be a little late to suggest this, but there will surely be some vintage Jowetts at the Rally in Huddersfield next weekend. If you aren't already booked in, perhaps attend on the static rally day, when you will be able to see the vintage Jowetts, and put questions to their owners. Ta...
