some pics of the rebuild process,

the top trailing arm bracket is broke......

the diff is sloping back a little (looking up) so that will need sorting.......

As you can see there isn't a lot of bracing in an S1 chassis, that will be sorted.

is it a mk1 or mk2 escort boss you need?

Mk2......17.5mm spline

mountney steering wheels

found this site....local to me as well......

adjustable boss

this looks like exactly what i need.........

That is not a boss, its a spacer, fits between the boss and the wheel. Don't think that'll work.

And one of these will solve the PCD issue, I have a steel one, just a circular flat plate but it works.

All the wheels in the stores are mountney or Astrali (101mmPCD) apart from one which is really odd. Its an 'Indianapolis' which has a 6 bolt fitting but they aren't symmetrical. This has an adapter which enables it to be fitted to a 70mm PCD boss. Problem is all these adapters add depth to the boss same as a quick release so you really need a shallow boss fitting or the wheel's going to be in your face.

my spare 13" steering wheel was a bit shallower than the rest........and the indicator stalk was bent a bit.....not perfect but a decent compromise.

i need a good leather dye...the steering wheel is faded and a little scruffy....anyone got any recommendations?

Good old cherry blossom, and a good buffing.

What colour you want to make it Dave? I have a red mountney with a red centre pad., low dish 4 spoke very much like the one in the photo.

I can also re-skin wheels cheap (dependant on colour required) and in nice thick leather too. Sure beats shoe dye.

This is mini astro black metallic spokes and black leather. 

Call you tomorrow ade. ....

repainted my wheels today...they are shiny now!.......
