The front wheel bearings on my 1500 need replacing, how easy is this to
do?  Do I need any special tools?  I have looked in my Haynes manual and
it appears to be relatively straight forward.  I am a complete novice
with cars, but would like to attempt to do this job myself, otherwise I
will pay a garage to do it.

On another point I managed to pick up 'Guide to purchase & DIY
restoration of the Triumph Spitfire, GT6, Vitesse and & Herald' by
Lindsay Porter & Peter Willams from Spitfire Graveyard yesterday for #10.
 I remember some discussion about this book a week or so back, apparently
this book is now out of print, it appeared in last years TSSC catalogue,
but is not listed in the current one.

cheers
John
