Bit more done today.. New side window seals fitted and installed, then shaped the ally radiator mounting plates after finalising the position as this radiator is slightly deeper than the original... so it was in - out - in - out..... yes Norm in out shake it all about !!.... just a couple of plates to make then it will be finished (radiator mounting that is !)
Chrome's good, is that you? reflected in the left hand bezel, in a red jacket and a pom pom hat.
Robin...... are you keeping up with your medication ??
Water radiator now fully fitted - also oil cooler radiator fitted after making the mounting brackets.... now that they are in the final position the twin fans have been ordered.
Next job ... I am going to make new door cards as the originals are pants !... I have ordered the card and the Diamond pattern padded vinyl........ so Stanley knife and glue are at the ready !
Cheers
Phil
Phil, he's right, y'know - there's a red blob that deffo looks like you
Or, it could be blood from the cut on the back of your hand after mauling about in the dark depths of the front end, and all the nasty sharp edges...?
Kept the blood letting to a minimum today... Re routed the battery cable to allow the fitment of a isolation switch in the cabin, then removed the servo and master cylinder which is eventually being replaced with a new unit.Originally Posted by Normb666

Whilst doing this I have now decided to pull back all the carp and paint the engine bay as this really lets the rest of the car down, so will start stepping back tomorrow.
Bit more progress...
Painted engine bay, fitted the radiator fans, oil cooler and made new door cards...
Then there's the wiring..............
Eeuww, yuk! Not nice wiring to find Phil.
But very satisfying sorting it out.
