Your tracker seems to be lagging. She is well west of the Azores and cranking along at 18knots. Also I can see the captain has gone for the southerly routing to avoid the remnants of Nicole 5 days from now. But don't worry. I expect you will encounter delays during processing for customs. I always seem to get a species of amoebic dysentry processing any cars I import.

Lovely photos. You must be almost done driving for the season now? I should know this since I lived in Tokyo so long, but do they salt the roads around Mt Fuji in winter time to melt the ice?

Its hurricane season until Nov 30. But its rare that ships sail into them now. They have desk captains at shipping cos./cruise lines whose job is to plot courses to avoid storms - those instructions are then sent to ship captains to follow. Its rare that a ship captain makes a navigational decision these days.

John - look at installing the captive nut bracket for the windscreen - makes it even easier to do the windscreen one handed. There is a left and a right side of these. Retaining Channel - LHS (caterhamparts.co.uk)

Scuttle is the panel that looks like the blue & white striped aluminum one in the photo below: It covers a LOT of wiring and may be hiding the Ford PATS module. I previously owned a Caterham of the same year as yours and my car was identical to how @glenntwincam describes it above in an earlier post. RMSCI was Rocky Mountain Sports Cars - the original importer of Caterham kits at that time. It is possible they even assembled this one. While there is a Caterham dealer by that name now, they are unrelated to RMSCI and would not have the history on your Caterham.

The Caterham UK racers I run with all aim for 25psi hot. Depending on your ambient temps on the day, I adjust cold pressures to aim to that hot temp point.

Great news! Photo share time.

Change over year was officially 2007 but some cars were metric in second half 2006. So agree with this statement. The Caterham roll bars are like rabbits and multiplied.

The standard chassis Caterham ran with the Apollo wheels from 2015 up until recently. Two finishes - diamond cut outer rim with black inner and then an all polished silver look. The all silver finish looks like this. Can still be bought new from Caterham off their parts website.

CatKong shipped in 2019 with the Orcus wheels - 15x7 fronts and 15x9 rears. Identical to my 2010 Caterham CSR Orcus wheels. I am guessing that because CSRs were so few after it went off catalog, they did not bother to update the wheel design to something newer until just recently.

I also use a set of BBS 13x7 and 13x9 wheels on my Caterham CSR. Three part wheels. Outer chrome finish with the inner a charcoal powdercoat. I modified my CSR to be able to take 13 inch wheels - they do not as standard. CatKong is getting the same wheels but with a gold finish center and the chrome outer rim.

The Caterham Orcus wheels were also done in 15x7 and 15x9 with a CSR offset - they milled the hub down off standard wheels. Shown here in charcoal finish - the only finish available on CSRs. Done from 2005 to around 2015.

Agree. The other giveaway is the thin bars used to run backwards to the rear basket supports.

Caterham 16x7 "Wagon Wheels". Standard wheel fitment in the 2001-2005 area. They weigh a ton.

They were the Caterham Orcus wheels. Offerred from around 2007 to 2014-15 area in both 13 inch and 15 inch sizing. Widths were a 6 inch for fronts and lower hp rears plus a wider 8 inch rear for the higher hp cars. Finishes were a dark gray plus the lighter silver in the photo quoted. Once thing to note with the Orcus wheels is that there were two types - one where the spokes came out and extruded over the rim (look at Kayentaskier's lime green car photo early on this thread) and the other where the spokes were recessed behind the rim (like John's red Westfield above and my CSR below).

The latest version of Caterham 170 has this big spoke wheel. Same dimensions as the Weller wheel posted above by WDB.

Those style of wheels were used on the first iteration of the Caterham 7 160. They are much narrower than the standard Caterham wheel. 14x4.5 dimensions so different. Not sure if Weller made the Caterham versions but they are similarly styled.

Progress is slow....non-existent is another word. In between my 180,000 miles on a plane this year in 30 something countries for work, I have been focused on making significant progress on my other project cars - the BMW, the white Holden, the Range Rover and the Cossie Escort. While great progress has happened there, the Caterham has languished. Bruce has been focused on his very successful Caterham race series. He is losing so that might cause him to refocus . I am planning to regroup with Bruce in person in early December to work out a plan for getting it done in 2023.

Keep in mind that Caterham parts sold in the US came from somewhere - they were shipped in from the UK, albeit in bulk instead of a single order. If you do not need Caterham (authentic) parts then try places like Summit or Pegasus for the small stuff such as mirrors. Another idea is print out the catalog from Car Builder Solutions UK and then using the item you find in the catalog, google the parts description for a stateside parts source. I have found assorted bits that way. Another source for Twin Cam and Crossflow engines and trasnmission bits: Vintage Racecar Engines, Portland, OR (iveyengines.com) Old Lotus parts can be sourced here: Home for Vintage Race Car parts (leechapmanracing.com) Suspension bits here LOTUS 7 parts Locost body parts and other assorted bits here Kinetic Vehicles

@Cueball1 Whats your view on Proxibid? I have always associated it with government disposals, bankruptcy sales, and salvage sales. It tries to be a regular auction house hence the (offensive) 15% buy commission but it is a long way short of that on service levels.

LOL Bruce, is this a nakedly transparent attempt to drum up publicity in the sales section of USA7s because you have not paid your membership fee? As for PC Car Market - they are trying to come back after a long decline. Am curious to see if they can do it. They are not a place I get searchbots to look at because their website is a PITA to work with. Given my Sunday morning time is valuable I focus on the major sites. The good thing for a buyer is they will find a value deal on the sites I miss if the sellers are not being as focused as you.
