Had to drop off bits to Greg today for fitting shortly and discovered further progress.
As mentioned previously, the car still needed repair to a few items in the engine bay and Greg still had to finish off the underside of the boot and bonnet. So found the car like this today.....
Mc-Cobra anyone????
Shrink wrapped cobra!
Some of the engine bay repairs
And what's in that "plain brown packaging" as my wife said tonight looking at the photos - DoH.............I had to laugh!!!!!
Should I have looked at her with a straight face and just said ...boat anchor???
But no to semi quote a famous local film......"it's the last of the Windsors, it's the ducks guts"
A bit hard to see but the third light all lined up.
The repairs needed were part mis-communication as to what holes needed filling first time around and new ones developed, some damage during body install and along the way, it has been 8 years remember!!!
Anyway I was also succesful on fleabay getting this sheet metal bender to do the aluminium work I'll need.
It is 1 metre wide and will nicely bend my planned 2mm thick aluminium panelling I need for my cockpit. I'll also later attach panels around the radiator at a later date.
So awaiting the car's return but feeling good about the whole journey now!
Enjoy
