Type49

More goodies arrived from the UK this morning.  I could have made one of these but for the price it was a no-brainer... really nice piece of kit.  

Some rainy Sunday afternoon progress. Drilled and fitted some rivnuts into the boot to mount the fuel pump cradle.  Then fitted the pumps... job done.  

And they will sit about here 

Offered up the pumps last night.  Should work out quite nice.  

While I haven't been working on the car i have had other things getting made or ordering lots of stuff from the UK. 

A good friend of mine is making up a fuel pump mount and a dry sump tank... Here's the fuel pump mount / box that got delivered today. 

Been pretty slack recently on getting our to the shed.  Mainly due to it being freezing.. 

Found some almost perfect match 100mph tape ... just in case something happens..

In daylight you can hardly tell... Should keep Mr policeman happy. 

Also ordered a vinyl front number plate to go on the leading edge of the bonnet as there's no room on the front panel.  Got it from Brent at Doozi.. awesome guy to deal with and awesome product.  Check out his website as he does lots of other cool stuff... 

Afternoon peeps. Just got back from Greenland Speed Shop. I needed some brake hoses made up.  These were made while I waited.  Awesome service and WOF compliant.  Was $1100... but I have two car sets.  ( 1 set as spares  ).  Now to start fitting them... 

Bit of a mid week update.  Had Jeremy from Bespoke Autoglass come and fit my heated front screen and polycarbonate rear screen. New rubbers and mouldings from Palmside. Another job done..  

And finally I ended up with this.. So I'll paint this and fit it then the rear window can go on.  

So I made a cardboard template, 

One of the jobs I have been putting off is closing in the fuel filler pipe where it goes through the firewall.. too many uneven surfaces, curves and generally a tricky job.  A good mate popped over this afternoon and came up with a plan. So here's what I had to work with...
