This debate could go on for pages and pages!! In summary all Interceptors are super cool according to Jeremy Clarkson and I totally agree! When I was looking to buy an Interceptor some 25 years ago I looked all over Australia, and my criteria was for a well maintained original one - I was not fussed...

Thanks for the nudge Martin - I do not check the Forum frequently enough - my bad. I used Dominic as well to import a Bentley Continental GT so recommend exactly what Dino Frtiz states.

Felix, Great work! The G Series of RHD Mk3s kept the 383 (6276) engine - from the late Richard Calver's website: In 1972, Chrysler stopped making its old workhorse, the 383. With more than three million of these worthies having been built, the corporation now relied on its low-compression 440 ci uni...

Yes - definitelty off an Australian assembled Cortina 440!

Hi Kees, Slotcarone and Dave, Yes - right hand drive car - and plenty of less than tasteful language was used - and in retrospect maybe I should have tried the replacement spindle boss first before committing to the total wiper wheelbox replacement - but that is my engineering training driving me. N...

An update - and the most frustrating and fiddly job I have done on my Interceptor over the 24 years I have owned it. Zero visibility of the work area tucked under the scuttle and behind the bonnet catch mounting bracket so it was all done by braille - even a dentist's mirror was no help. And had to ...

Eeeek!! I was not aware of this typo and I have looked many of the Genomes stored in my dining room and they all seem to have the same typo. I also checked the final 'for print' version that Richard signed off on and it has the same typo - so noting Raj's comments I suspect all Genomes have the typo...

Dear All - thank you for all your replies - much appreciated - and all very useful! An update - I started investigating drilling holes both vertically and horizontally to secure the knurled boss but it became obvious the monkey metal of the splined boss was falling apart so it would only be a short ...

2023 12 Interceptor Wiper Spindle.jpg Thanks Kev - and I cannot believe how quickly the books are being delivered overseas - enjoy the read! Now have worked out how to upload a photo. The shaft is driving fine but the knurled boss the wiper arm attaches to slips on the shaft from the wheelbox. Some...

When driving to a car show today there was light rain (yes it does rain sometimes in Australia) and the drivers side wiper failed to move. On examination the spindle no longer drives the knurled boss which the wiper arm attaches to - with evidence of previous 'repairs'. I know replacing the spindle ...
