Hi All
Just finished the last bits on the chassis, Away all next week but looking forward to next Saturday when I can start stripping every thing off and then off to media blasting. Still a few bits of body work to do but need the body fully fitted to do them. Ran out of hose fittings for the fuel system so it's back to ebay (again).

Long time waiting for this time

Alan

Ha ha!
Joe, I think Alan means his boss is Erin Dawes.

It's always a delicate balancing act between rival commitments.
Well, if you're a marrid man, eh Alan?
Great work so far thumbup

Your right Glen, I want to spend it on my S and she just spends it on silly things like food and bills, they just don't understand do they.
Now I am ready to strip it down I am working away all this week in Lincoln so nothing I can do until Saturday and what's your bet she will want to go to the seaside.

Hi All

Well it's strip down day today, finished the fuel system but for 2 an-8 elbows, just to connect injector rail feeds and pump feeds to swirl tank when body fully fitted. Hydraulic handbrake and balance valve in, just need to make the leaver removable for road use.
Had to give up Saturday and Sunday to house work, I did say she would have to come down and write the labels out.
Media blaster picking up next Monday and back following Monday.

It's a push to brake with a removable handle, dash in two pieces so can be removed with ease.




Just to connect up hoses when body fully fitted
