Update: I've just added a note to say I'm prepared to sell the car without the Smoor wheels which will obviously be reflected in the price. Of course, I will provide a good set of steels in their place.

As your mate says, stud extractors is what you need. You can get really small ones, so you shouldn't have a problem extracting it.

Failing that, you could just replace the bearing cap that the bolt has sheared on.

Ah, they leak all the time. Mine leaks as and when it decides to. As long as it's not gushing out oil, I wouldn't worry about it. I think it's these cheap GSF ones that make it worse. You could remove the gasket and check it over for any splits or perishing, just to be sure. When you put it back, gi...

Yeah, you can get them all over the place. I ended up getting mine from a local model shop, as I know the guys there, but check out eBay. The one I have is the Hyper 7, which is meant to be one of the best buggies around (well, the pro version of it is.) It's a 1:8th scale, so it a big bugger, and e...

Very nice Del! Although, I would have masked off the level indicator so I could still see how much is in there, without opening the cap. Nonetheless, looks fantabulous! Next, I reckon you get a chrome rocker cover, and spray the expansion tank lid the same silver as the washer bottle. The little fle...

It's usually about 20/25% mix, but I always water it down loads so it goes further. I only really put about 10% of screenwash in, to stop it from freezing in winter.

Yeah, tis under the dizzy on the block, just above the gearbox bellhousing.

I can just about see mine, after wire brushing it down.

If it's very difficult to see, clean it down and rub a bit of chalk on the surface, and it should bring the number up quite well.
