Web Forum for Singer Cars

I've posted this separately from my restoration thread to try and get maximum feedback. My Junior Tourer seats are structurally complete but the soft furnishing/sprung element is more or less completely destroyed. Can anyone advise me on coach trimmers who would take on this restoration, preferably ...

Did you get all the info you need? My 1929 Junior has a complete chassis and I can send you pictures of any parts you need clarification on.

In the end I went ahead alone with an engine hoist and the mooring ropes from our boat! In a small garage I have to think vertically so I lifted the body then fabricated a frame beneath from spare timber which was wide enough to roll the chassis out from underneath.

Good tip Mike, thanks!

That looks like a good idea Froux. Thanks for the tip. I plan to lure some strong friends round with promises of beer before revealing that they are actually at a 'Take the Body off the Singer' party!

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I will indeed keep the thread going as I often need the feedback. I've just completed the complete strip down and rebuild of a Series One Land Rover and found the LRSOC Forum indispensable so I'm hooked on the online contact. I have had her head off as I was getting ...

Thanks Roly. Lots of things to learn! This weekend I played with the timing as she was blowing back through the carburettor. I retarded the magneto a notch on the splines and she is much better and will hold a decent tickover now. I may go back one further notch just to see what happens. Although I ...

Arrival 003 (1024x683).jpg I've just discovered this site so Hello from Wisbech in Cambridgeshire! I am restoring a 1928 Singer Junior Tourer which I bought from a lovely man in Cornwall who had kept it unused in a shed since 1961. Little Bea as she is known is in really good shape generally althou...
