Phil, noting your hub carriers, most need a thoroughly good rebuild by now. It's not a difficult job...but if you're looking for the right company to send to these are the people where everyone sends their hubs.

Thanks V8250, the hubs feel fine and I won't be doing too many miles but if I get a problem I will know where to go.
Here is the NS Rear hub - polished but more to do.
........and the oil filter has been brazed and leak tested. It will be carefully cleaned inside and checked when the engine turns over.

Phil, given any thoughts as to how you're going to attache the rear Sebring valance? They can be a rascal to get right. Have a good proven technique is you're blending in to the body...
It is a slight problem because I want to have the rear wings removable to get the big rear wheels and tyres off if needed. So I think I will rivet and bond it to the rear panel and have a bolt up under the rear lights (that is what is there now), together with hidden fastenings to hold the lower front edge to the bottom of the back of the wings. I have had to rejig the oil filter circuit to make sure the flow direction through the filter was correct and then I filled the filter and bowl with oil ready for turn-over... start up??
Then, as I had the welder today, I put in the final bit of floor, the bracket for the master cylinder, the steering column, the top part for the trailing arm front mounts and altered the geometry of the brake foot pedal and accelerator pedal (no clutch as it is an Automatic).

I have been looking at the front wheels and I have finally found, what I hope, will be a good match for the back Jaguar alloys......
