Ace, Aceca & Greyhound Forum / Front uprights

« on: February 07, 2014, 00:43:14 »

On a previous thread which I can't find there was an Acceca that had had the front uprights swapped side to side and this caused some evil handing! I was wondering just how do you know which is left and right? I notice that the upper bolt through the spring eye is captive on one side so if I knew which direction the bolt went ie the nut at front or rear of the upright this would indicate the correct fittment? anybody have an idea for me..........Thanks.....Paul....

General Forum / New boy.

Hi all just found this forum looking for information on Aceca's. I used to work at the Brooklands factory involved in the two Ford MK IV's and the drophead Rolls-Royce Clouds back in the late 80's. I had a blast working there such a great team and wonderful cars that came out of there! and having Safir next door was a wonderful experience for me as a fan of the GT 40, watching Jim Rose fabricate a chassis from nothing was awe inspiring for a young mechanic! anyway I now have my own restoration shop in N.California and am currently finishing off an Aceca project so will check back in with some questions later!
   
   PS is it possable to upload pictures to this site? as I have a few of the MKIV''s under rebuild that might be of interest?
