Spitfire gear shifter repair

Today, finally fitted the gear linkage repair kit I had ordered, it was not as easy to fit as  it looks because one of the retainers is a pain to remove. The kit contains a lot of parts some for different era spitfire so it took more time trying to decide what parts to use. Overall it improves the feel on the gear lever and will make gear change a lot nicer.



Since I am at it I sanded the gear knob, super easy just fitted it in a drill, clear coated, hopefully it will look nice.



I went round the block again but noticed that now my voltage it too high so it looks like I need to give the voltage regulator an other look. Ah, british electrics... gotta love it !
