**Initial Inspection and Repairs:**
During the initial inspection, we identified several issues requiring attention:
– Oil cooler lines positioned too close to the header, prompting a recommendation for header wrap and rerouting the lines.
– Missing sheet metal screws on the fan and engine.
– Loose alternator belt.
– Seepage in the push rod tube seals and oil screen gasket.
– Transmission servicing needed.
– Leaks in the right rear wheel cylinder, output seal, and steering box seal.
– Non-functional taillights.
– Wiper arms requiring adjustment.
– Seepage detected in the front beam.
– Malfunctioning headlamp bulbs.
– Loose ignition switch.
– Spark plugs in need of replacement, alongside timing adjustment.
– Cracked fuel pump spacer, necessitating replacement.
Following these repairs, we also rebuilt the carburetor. However, the engine still exhibited issues that required further attention.
**Final Engine Overhaul:**
A deeper inspection revealed the need to replace the cylinder heads, along with their associated gaskets and seals. After completing this comprehensive overhaul, the cherished Speedster now operates seamlessly, ready to deliver the thrilling driving experience it was designed for.

After months of meticulous restoration and repair, this legendary classic is ready to command attention on the roads once again.

This beautiful 1979 Rolls Royce Corniche came in to Import Specialties with a starting problem. We were able to correct the starting problem. We also serviced the engine and transmission, replaced the engine air filter, fuel filter, oil filter and transmission filter. We also adjusted the emergency brake and serviced the A/C system. We found the carburetors were not synchronized. We rebuilt both carburetors and made adjustments as needed. We corrected the problem with the cabin heat by replacing the heater valve. Lastly we diagnosed a problem with the driver seat, we repaired the seat wiring.
