Right nothing interesting.

 

I have been on my holiday for the past 3 weeks and have been all over the UK. While down in Cornwall I popped in to the rattler cyder farm and managed to get one of draft cyder taps. I am gonna fill it and thread it and use it as a gear nob which should be cool.

Spent the last few nights painting bits and getting ready to put all the rear brakes and suspension together. 

 

Last night I fitted new wheels bearings and studs and painted the hubs.

Tonight I gave my refubred radius arms a lick of paint as the paint the company who refurbs them uses was really thin.

Then tonight I fitted the back plates back on using some nice new stainless nuts and bolts but I forgot to get pics of this. 2 night I am hoping to finish it all off and have it all together! Then once my camber brackets turn up I can get it all on the car!

Random shot for no reason.

This turned up yesterday!

 

10428047_10152939499639848_8276657052594

 

On it went although I am missing one of the gaskets hence why it not fully bolted in yet.

 

10295764_10152939499514848_7559850635603

 

Looks sweet though.

 

Engine had another coat of paint and I decided to to the whole thing green.

 

10349949_10152939499849848_2859743528694

 

I have a shopping list for Beaulieu, if I get a head gasket set then I can get that on and the engine can go in.

 

I also got a bonnet catch given to ma ages ago as mine went missing so today I finally stripped it to bits and gave it a lick of paint. I'll give it a second coat 2moz and then get it fitted on the car.

 

So a few more small jobs done but still a step closer
