AP2289 Build log 'stage 2'

[xb-60]

Thanks for the comments Richard.
The more things I cross off my list, the more things I find that I have to add to the list

Yes, I agree (and you've seen my garage/workshop) you don't need a massive space to turn out a decent car. I do wish, though, that I'd prepared better for parts storage in prep. for this project

Cheers,
Glen

Frustration here! A mere 8 hours after that last post, I'm looking for my much cherished Harrison tank. Can't find the dang thing anywhere, having looked everywhere (well, almost everywhere, obviously) in the safe places I might have put it ....probably around 8 or 9 years ago.
It'll turn up somewhere, someday; just hope it's in time to be able to use it

Cheers..... (I'll go and have a pale ale)

First rule: under no circumstance, should you put an item in a place where you will never forget that you put it there! Second rule: never clean your shop. That way, you always know in which pile the peace you are looking for is!

Hmm.... never too old to learn
I'm into my third log book for the build..... so if in future I put something in a "special"/"safe" place, I'm making an entry on the last page of the log book as to where I put it.
That'll work, won't it ?

Time for another pale ale...

Cheers!

Still working on seat belts, but for a bit of (needed) variety, have fitted air horns in the front fender.
I thought it would be a quick job. It wasn't.



I'll bend up an alloy shield (for when I'm driving in the rain )

Cheers, & stay safe!

Glen,

Congrats! Now, make sure you do not have too many pale ales in celebration, lest you then forget where it is again...

Cheers,

Jim

Glen,

Recognition is the first step towards the solution...

I have seen the Harrison tank mounted on top of the front tower, like mine, and also on the fender wall as well. I would wait to mount it until after the engine is in place. It makes figuring out where it fits best and the hoses work best much easier.

Cheers,


Jim

Jim,

Yes, agreed, the tank won't go in until the engine is in. Too much risk of damage, and those tanks can be hard to find.

Best regards (how's that? )
Glen
