A few pictures as proof that I do do a little
Block painted.
Bits going back on
A bit of valve lapping, ZZZzzzzzzz
back on the welding
Wheel tub repairs.
Then on to the inner tank well and a section of boot floor.
Wheel arch slipped in to mark up.
Trimmed and tried for size
A little break with me old fella
Materials became available for a spit, so got to work on that. Ready then for the underneath to be cleaned up and paintedno surely not paint
You may have noticed this is a post where nothing gets finished, just bits and bobs on the go, Ill finish something one day
World wasn’t built in a day, been nearly 10 years on mine but nearly there so no rush and doing well
Quality not Quantity is my standard excuse.
With the shell on the spit now, it’s much easier to work onso back on to the arch.
Tidied up bottom corners
A little hole in the sill left to fill.
And a lick of paint.
Only one bit to repair on the quarter, the outer tank well bottom.
Then back to box in the wheel tub.
Back to the last crusty bit on the tub.
Started to cut out the rot.
That’s it for now
Awesome work being put in here,
Im still amazed at the amount of passion and hard hours put in each project.
Carrying on with tub repairs
And engine looking like an engine
Great work on your restoration. That spit must surely make life a lot easier.
