Though I would start a build thread even though progress is slower than the melting of the ice caps. (parts supply)
Had a few days to stuff around with a few odd and ends.
I invited a mate up for lunch and "while you are here" we bleed the brakes and the clutch, only had one leak! it is nice to have a couple of firm pedals for when I sit in the car pretending to drive through the hills.
I made a mold for the dash crash pad,
end profile of mold
I poured it in ISF136 (Integral Skin Foam 136kg per cubic meter) mix and pour, you have to be quick it starts to expand at a very rapid rate after 25 sec of mixing. You can get it the right sure hardness by pouring more mixture in to the mold than is required and sealing the mold, the foam cant expand and becomes more dense, a bit of trial and error.
End product installed
I had some trouble de-molding and damaged it, but I think it will be ok in the end and because it has a skin you don't have to cover it with anything. I will do some mods to the mold and pour another one next weekend
I moved my fuel lines in to a cable tray that I put in the tunnel
instead of this
fuel lines drooping between P-clips
and this
Fuel line squashed between body and moving suspension parts
It now looks like this
There was room to run the vacuum hose for the charcoal canister, the hose for the windscreen washer & the main power fed to the starter as well. It cleaned up the underside of the car nicely.
Cheers
