Caterham has been waiting on this, we will have "turn key" Sevens with powertrains that meet the law. This will enable regular financing to be...

Hi! I'm wondering why you are asking? I have a Birkin manufactured in 2000 that I purchased as the basic kit. The steering rack, best I could...

A truly impressive piece of work.

Here's a photo of Alaskossie's luggage rack sans luggage. Edited to add a second photo taken from the other side with a little more...

Well done indeed, on both counts!

Tom Carlin in Colorado can help you. He’s the current importer and is an expert in all things Birkin.

Yep finally got the M-ride to find the M-Unit I set the aux 2 to engage as soon as the ignition energizes so that is solved as I now have an Aux fuse...

I like it already! Aluminum tubing or steel?

I have a couple of pictures of the loaded luggage rack with spare tire from when he was loading it up to start the trip but none of the custom...

Although the process has begun, we've had some delays due to travel and work schedules. I will provide an update to the dates above today or...

I think it may have been a modified VW rack&pinion. Have you checked with dick brink? I think he was the main importer back then. If not birkin...

Agree, would love to see the luggage rack!

Thanks for the info Alaskossie. I was definitely going to go the route of the pipe cutter... nice and clean. I understand the method of attachment...

Sorry I'm late to the party. Scannon let me know that this thread was running. I've been remiss in not following USA7s more closely of late -- too...

Pulled the starter last night with the intent of just cleaning the power terminal. Found that the solenoid terminal had a fractured solder joint so...

I used my old uni-syn last night. Found a slight front/back carb variation, and then a very slight #3 cylinder variation that i fixed with the small...

If you do go that route here is a good way to tin the wires I used it for any wires not terminated with Ferrules ...

I believe Alaskossie had one made for his Caterham. I haven't seen him on here for quite awhile. I'll shoot him an email and see if I can get him...

Yes, similar...but even cuter if possible. I will use the remaining tubes on the body to make a license plate mount so it wouldn't just leave them...

That is the "ignition" output of the M-Unit. It is powered any time the ignition is on. So I just have that trip a relay that powers the fuse box for...

I know you asked Steve, but I'll answer too. I just stripped and soldered the wires. Twisting the bare wires isn't as good because the receivers...

I started with these: ...

Steve, what are those terminals that insert into the M-Unit called, please? Do they just crimp onto the wires? Seems a much better solution than just...

Jeff OK I guess I must use a kill switch as "Lock" needs 12v to turn on the unit, so I will wire as you did using a hidden 12v switch. I am...
