That's different from mine. Mines is single line with a servo. The 4 way valve is much further back. Norrie

ok so I started to fit my brake pipe kit today that I got off eBay. Now I’ve managed to get most of the pipes fitted apart for the one that goes to the master cylinder as the fitting is smaller. The biggest problem I’ve got is the front o/s pipe is about 18” too long unless I’m missing something...

I dont want a smaller wheel as the steering is heavy enough as it is. Norrie

A series 3 plastic job. It's a 1975. Norrie

Ok so my steering wheel looks cap as the finish has worn off it. What is the best way to refurb It? I was thinking about painting.it with plasticoat. What do you guys think? Norrie.

I need to get my arse into gear now and get all the panels painted. Norrie.

Got my metalwork back from the Galvinizers today. Most of it looks.like brand new.

Ok so there's no reason I can't fit the earlier style dash then? Norrie

Ok when I was at the breakers the other day I managed to pick up a.really good condition dash top however I've noticed that it is different to mine. It has small vents for the heater ducts when my original has larger vents. Does anyone know why they are different? My original dash has a big...

Where do you stay? Perhaps someone local can help? It's very hard trying to work out problems from pics and descriptions. Norrie

Managed to finish prepping the bulkhead today and got a coat of primer on it and then the first coat of gloss. In between when I was waiting on the primer drying I got a fresh coat of chassis black on the chassis. I need more paint to do the axles etc. Norrie

He he I like it. There’s no danger of any passer bys up at my place as I live in the middle of no where. So as,for my radiator panel I can fit that ok then? I need to finish painting my bulkhead first really so I can bolt everything back onto the engine Norrie.

The reason I want to do it as the whole car is stripped to the chassis apart from the bulkhead and engine. I hope to put the radiator back on so I can run the engine and move the car out of the garage so I can get the roof and tub in to paint them. I know I could run the engine without the...

Welded the other repair panel in today. Also filled and smoothed it off. It doesn't look too bad. Just got a coat of etching primer on just now. Will hopefully get some primer on tomorrow. Norrie

Ok so I’ve painted the radiator panel and the radiator etc. I would like to fit this to enable the engine to run. Can the radiator panel be fitted with out the wings? Also should it be fitted with rubber washers? Thanks. Norrie

I'm wondering if the galvanizing will take up the play in the hinges. I will find out when I get them back. Norrie.

Also put the top coat on the radiator panel. Norrie.

Done a bit of welding to the bulkhead today. Welded in a repair panel around the vent and a piece of metal into the top of the door jam. Just needs filled and sanded now. Will hopefully do the other side tomorrow.

Yeah no probs. Hopefully get my metalwork back on Friday from the Galvinizers. Can't wait. I need to get.on and paint some more bits. It's been a bit cold to paint up until now. I.painted the radiator panel and had to bring it in the house to dry. Lol. Norrie

Using solid rivets. My mate used to be an aircraft engineer and his mate has a pneumatic riveter. Think I'm going.to use flat head M5 rivets as there cheaper. Norrie.
