murena restore

[klumzer]

Thank you.
I was sure that you have some photos...

Now I know that the gauge side was complete in my car. But some parts are missing at the wheel side. As it was unserviceable for years the cable is rotted into the housing and cannot be removed.
On Monday I will contact a manufacturer.

Restoration process is going on, but now we are waiting for the lower engine bushes. If we got them, the engine could be mounted into the car. But there is still a lot to do...

The cable can be rusted and not coming out.
Normaly you can pull it out easy.
You can take a angle grinder and make the surface flat.
Then use a driver to get it out.
This picture is left Bagheera and right Murena.
The later Bagheera had the same as the Murena.

Has anyone tried one of these washer bottles?
If yes, some photos (after installation) would be appreciated...
Thanks.

Pic not found in my collection yet, but I know you have to drill a hole at the spot the original is placed.
The electrics are a straight fit.

Thank you.
It looks quite good.

Could anyone write me the dimensions of the 'Talbot-Matra' decal on the back of the car?
I need the total length and height. And a good photo of it also would be appreciated.

Mine was missing when I bought the car...
Thanks in advance.

The car is not at hand at the moment, beside that I hold bed because I am ill.
Be patient and I will make some close up pics with measurements.

Greetings Oetker.

[klumzer]

Oh, I am sorry to hear that you are ill. Get better!

Of course, but I just wanted to show you the font type. One of the pictures shows it quite well.

I have just had a brand new set scanned, reproduced and also put on CD. Will be picking it next week and will post it on the forum with dimensions.

There is something what I forgot... 

What are those rivets for? Something should be on the other side....

Thanks in advance.
