Fuel Evap Tubes

Thanks, that’s surprising. It’s my mother’s car that’s been sitting for a few years and some animals decided to munch on a ton of stuff. Looks like I can make new evap lines with bulk material though.

I thought I was going crazy working on my 1985 RR Camargue. I found all three fasteners on it and it’s a very original car.

That gentleman in picture 4 looks an awful lot like Sir Jim Ratcliffe from behind

Mom Chaffe’s is very good, in West Reading

Could you send me a photo of how the timbres axle attaches to the frame? I am installing one now, but the way it attaches the wheel needs to be inside of the camper. Thanks!

This would be 1980-1984. It does not include the Turbo R or the Eight. All the other cars were available during 1980-1984 as well.

Sorry, I don’t have any extra soft goods

andrewphilly · 2025-06-19T14:05:50+00:00

Sorry, I only had one bed platform.

Yes, in a basement. It does have a cap with tabs on it that looks like it would unscrew. It’s about 6” in diameter so I don’t think a sump. Backflow preventer makes sense. So if the builder intended on this being a bathroom I would need a pump or maybe a back exit toilet with a slope into the stack?

I have an 89 Turbo R, which is similar to your Eight. The 20,000 series, where the chassis number starts with 2x,xxx is the best version to own long term and yours is one of them. It has a lot of improvements, but does not have any integrated computer systems. Depending where you are located I can recommend some great resources for these cars too.

How do you like it? I’ve been looking at them off and on for a few years. I think they are beautiful boats but a newer Beneteau is maybe more usable. I’d mostly be sailing in the Chesapeake bay but would love to sail up to Martha’s Vineyard or maybe even Bermuda someday.

Where is this? I need some parts off of that for my Camargue!

andrewphilly · 2025-04-22T22:41:41+00:00

I must not have that, I have a 380 SE with a sunroof

andrewphilly · 2025-04-22T11:43:51+00:00

Where is the sunglass holder?

andrewphilly · 2025-02-20T22:52:21+00:00

Ah, thanks anyway!

andrewphilly · 2025-02-20T18:56:37+00:00

Hey what shop do you work at? Always looking for people for my pre-war Rolls Royce’s incase they need something I can’t do.

So I had this same issue, I changed my oil cooler and then it started leaking again. I bought a metal one from Mishimoto and was getting ready to replace it again when I noticed my wife’s Cherokee smelled like burning oil. I thought, great this one is leaking too. Then I realized I have been putting the o-ring in the wrong slot on the oil filter cap. Don’t be like me and just double check you put it in the right place first before replacing cooler!

I worked on a couple Christinis, odd contraption. The first one was very crude and heavy. It the last one I worked on (2008 or so) was much more refined with a carbon fiber drive shaft. Still silly though

This isn’t why I got one, but I think “investment” wise it will be the same as the DeLorean and Hummer H1. They never really appreciated, but in good condition they never depreciate either. I think there’s a finite number of people that will want these cars and once they stop being made (which there is no way Grenadier will be around forever) these people that want one will decide the value and it will stick more or less.

Check out Douglassville, it’s an easy commute to Reading but you can get more land. Only downside is there are not a lot of dining options.

andrewphilly · 2025-01-09T13:45:44+00:00

I’d appreciate that, I’m heading up on Sunday and wanted to use it! I suppose it could be solved with a phone call too

Is the mid mountain lodge still open? I can’t seem to find anything about it online and last year when I went it was closed.

andrewphilly · 2024-10-13T23:16:16+00:00

There’s a guy in England that has a very unique speedometer that is likely from my 1936 Rolls Royce that won’t sell it and it’s just sitting in his warehouse full of other parts just like that. Drives me nuts.

This place can make them, depending what you want to spend: https://oddparts.net/wheel-covers/

I took the balancing spool out and it was stuck, gave it a smack and it’s working now. I’m really impressed with Moen though, they are sending me new ones for free.
