Hi amigos, wow those who PMd certainly pounced!
Sorry Defender 110, I didn't see a PM from you. Anyway, all parts are now spoken for but there's one or two new items found, I added them to the end of this post.
For the benefit of those inquiring via PMs, here are photos of the parts taken today:
firstly, the Pinion valve:
Can anyone confirm visually that this IS a BX pinion valve? and not a ZX as could be a possibility..
Next, the Struts:
HP pump:
Note that this is the earlier style green-coloured and metal-encased BX pump. It came out of my old BX Mk1. It is in good order and was only removed as I managed to source a reduced-price brand new pump for that car (later, black, plastic-cased type)
Other parts found today!!
Semi NOS distributor with manufacturing fault.
Bit of a story to this dizzy. I bought a new, reconditioned dizzy for the Mk1 BX16 (that's the model it's for btw) only to find that the drive dog on it had been fitted 180deg the wrong way! I couldn't remove its roll pin to refit it the right way despite being assured it would come out with a drift, as I had limited tools. Anyway, I decided to make a hybrid new part out of the new one and the car's existing one (it's in a thread on here somewhere) so the car was finally fitted with a distributor with the 'new' upper half including cap, rotor, upper body with magnetic pick ups and the connecting wire. It worked a treat but left this lesser distributor with a used cap, rotor, and magnetic device but with a brand new lower body including shaft, advance capsule, and seals. Just that the drive dog is on the wrong way round.... anyway, it's yours for a fiver plus postage. Just PM for more info if needed, mind it's for a BX16 carburetor, manual.
Headlight:
It's used, in OK condition and resealed glass. But I used black sealant not white as it's Tiger sealant which is very good. Say £3 plus post? Comes with bulbs too. It's a near side headlight.
Door card from a TXD ( think)
There's also a door lock barrel but no key. It's about as much use as a freezer in the desert... free to anyone who wants it.
There's a second BX HP pump too but it's not in as good condition as the pulley is a bit out of true. I was thinking of making a 'CitroJim' style Sphere tester out of it' but if someone wants it £3 plus post as I have a spare CX series 1 pump to use for that.
