Rubber pipes corroded ??
I suspect what is being described is the steel pipe across the front of the radiator.
That is the power steering cooling pipe .
Check if this is true and reply.

Getting the fuel pump out is easy, getting to the fuel pump to get it out ,is a major exercise. The only upside is the access to the hidden brake pipe which can then be replaced if it is corroded. Unless you have run the tank dry( ?) I would have thought the fuel pump is ok, definitely check everyth...

Such a relief to know it is going to a 'good' home ! I have just been out to look at the curve of the wheel arch. It is an uncomplicated 15.5", maybe 16" radius with a 90deg turnover. Unlike the '50's, 60's cars that had the wheel arch slightly raised away from the 'flat of the body of the car. Migh...

Essentially ,you remove the battery base plate and substitute 'my plate', it gives the 075 battery terminals plenty of space...

Lots of heat and big hammer will get them out.
Trouble is, you will need new bolts to replace them.
