Jordie im quite taken by the grey thats already in the interior but colours for the outside is anyones guess.I like the red and white but i need the doors and a new bonnet sprayed along with some general tidying up so probably change colour while im on,maybe a similar theme but different colours?
Cheers Ross.

The handbrake had been added after the cars build and the position its was in wasnt comfortable for me and it was put in a bit messy as well so thought i would hack it out and start again.
Before

After

You can see where the front bracket has been it looks almost double skinned,im pretty sure this is where the original hole for the handbrake cable has been plated over from beneath.
This took a while to do as the welds were a bit heavy duty and took a while to clean up nicely.Bar removing some old rivets,the other job for today was to remove the fuel hose which was riveted into place in some awkward positions.Used a dremel to get in at them as the drill wouldnt have gone anywhere them.
Fuel hose and fittings.

Cheers Ross.

Also going to get a shorter cable made up as the handbrake is quite away back from the standard position,ive seen people use threaded bar but seems like a bit of a bodge.
