It doesn't seem that electronics were involved in that 2019 Lexus conversion, though. The article says "This is a fully mechanical solution that allows for foot pedal steering. "

Foot controlled steering is a thing in modern cars, apparently. https://www.brookmiller.co.uk/foot-pedal-steering-adaption/

Welcome to the forum @stevek I'm sure your commitment to saving apparently hopeless cases will meet with plenty of approval here! I had a D reg 309 GR Profile a long time ago when they were just cheap bangers. It's fair to say it wasn't a good example and became bean tins over twenty years ago.

Ah, the two spoke wheel, unique to the L. Four spoke on all other trim levels. Power steering was an optional extra, too!

Let's start the month with a trio of Volvos from @Six-cylinder in his motoring notes thread

I've seen that car in use around Sutton several times. £2,500 seems cheap.

Looks like they managed to clean up the original number plate too, or had a very faithful replica made.

To activate the boot light?

There should be.

Lord Nuffield, I think. He died in 1963 so I suppose the 1100 was the last Morris launched in his lifetime.

Baseness? It's a 1.3 L, the second most expensive of the seven Nova saloons at the time. Positively luxurious!

I still prefer brownnova's!

The fact that some people think like that makes it even more worth keeping! I reckon the four door is the best looking of the Nova bodystyles.

@rob88h in the CITROËN BX 14 E Leader thread

Early Renault 5s had column change. Unusual in a supermini!

Looks like the correct Philips AN232 radio. Sep-Nov 1985 brochure link A basic two band radio was typical for this class of car in 1985, base Maestros and Escorts had similar. Base Novas, Fiestas and Metros still had no radio at all.

Nice purchase! Those wheel trims and that radio make it a base, I believe?

@RetroShite in the Retroshite thread

And yet the SD1 was a clean sheet design launched in 1976 while the Escorts are based on the original 1968 model.

Floor change was standard on all FE models, but for some reason a bench seat was also standard on basic Victors for the first year. Vauxpedia has the answers
