Facelift Big bumper spoiler
Hi, I have an undamaged pair of bumpers, from my 1995 Celebration convertible, in Sapphire metallic. I replaced them with new, as I was preparing my car to concours standard. As you will know, the design of these bumpers was such that they were not ideally-supported & a little distortion takes place...

Driver's seat - 4.0l Celebration convertible - 1995
I had mine "re-upholstered" - but that firm only re-covered it - I had the correct Brige of Weir leather & the result is a nice job, as far as it goes. However, I am now looking for a source of the correct webbing & seat cushions & bolsters - & preferably also the back cushions. Has anyone succeeded...

Celebration convertible - Rust-proofing
These, and all post-face-lift cars, were supposed to have been very well rust-protected. Mine seems 100% in that respect & I'd like to keep it that way! But I have heard comments that the rust-proofing was not consistently good on all the face-lift cars, & some have rusted. Does anyone have experien...

Trim fasteners
Hi, I got the battery cover fasteners from SNG Barrett. However , during a period of repeated battery-discharge problems, I got tired of the rather weak & fiddly standard system & replaced it with two captive bolts through the existing metal framework, and an external polished aluminium plate, all h...

Tonneau, for Convertible.
Has anyone looked at the possibility of a full tonneau cockpit cover for the convertible? This is what I use 90% of the time on my other sportscar - a Morgan 4/4 - & it is very convenient for quickly hiding the contents & protecting the upholstery from the elements, when leaving it for a short time....

Aircon 1995 4.0l Celebration.
Re Graeme's Message, I have the same model , & have heard of some fairly horrific (£3000+) & unsuccessful bills, for Aircon faults. Main dealers do not pretend to be able to deal economically with this, on classics. Per the CD, the electronics seemed very complex & I was apprehensive about the risk ...
