Hi One and all,

[R4-Bob-F6]

New recruit to the R4 forum. Last year I bought an imported R4 van for resto (early French F6) but I didn’t lay a spanner on it until I recently obtained a V5 and reg number from DVLA. I previously owned the blue F4 in the early 1980’s, followed by a green R4TL and then a ‘red-oxide’red R12. I have many Q’s about parts availability etc, and look forward to meeting up with anyone local to Oxfordshire (or Bicester). Regards, Bob.

Hi Bob
Am not far from you - in Cheltenham, and can probably help with quite a few parts.
Good luck with the F6!

Hi Andy, Thanks for your reply. I will compile a ‘parts required’ list from my scribbles and post them here ASAP.
So far I have the front end on axle stands but I’m working outside so progress is governed by the weather. I noticed a message from Piet for a petrol tank guard and saw your reply with the parts catalogue image. Do you happen to know if I can obtain a similar parts catalogue for my F6?

 

[Andy McGhee]

Sure - pm me your email, and I'll send you a copy of the parts book.

Many thanks Reidalpine. I almost ashamed to say I have never managed a trip to Norway, or any Scandinavian countries, and at my age I better get my skates on !
