Got stainless so hoping the centre pin is as well

Errrr ... rivets :oops:

Bathroom men turned up, dug the newly laid floor up and are now levelling it up ready for another new floor Not plucked up the courage to cut my bonnet yet

I think the old trucks were hinged in three places because with just one the headlamps would obstruct opening the hood, problem is it's got to be at least one in the middle and jiggle opening it or go all the way with three. Vent is a problem with either option. I think it'll look better with...

Marked up for three piano hinges, only problem being the top vent on bonnet, there's a hole under it. Just plucking up the courage for the first cut 🤔

I'd replace leak off pipes anyway as they're cheap and easy, see if it persists

Mornin Suns a shinin, birds a tweetin, grass a growin, what's not to like ? 😊 Still no sign of bathroom fitter, man from council says fitter is ill 🤔:confused: Might cut ma bonnet and hinge it today Stay focused all :)

I have re-used a copper head gasket in the past, got wifey to iron it then torqued it down to 60 lbs feet Might be worth tightening the head down to 60 , they seldom warp being cast iron

They usually leak around the engine number area, I always used to put a but of gasket stuff on that area when assembling. Water may be running along from the thermostat housing though

Black seems to be the colour of choice recently

You're spoiling them They'll be coming in boatloads next year :D

It's just a toy most of the time, found sat nav handy around Edinburgh when we went though I usually look up my destination on google maps first and then just go, nav is handy when it gets complicated in strange cities, my memory isn't what it was and things change over the years.

Mornin Bright and sunny again No sign of bathroom fitters, been a week and three days since I seen em 🤔 Onwards and upwards then Stay busy all :)

Now you see it isn't, Put address in yes, press ok, yes, but gets complicated after that with too many options . I had to try different things before I got it to work, manual wasn't helpful

I did my full new galv chassis with patio cleaner in a kitchen spray. Washed it off and did it again Dulled the shine off it ready for paint Painted in black gutter paint and still good when I sold it years later
