Lockdown update. The bonus of being locked down means more work on this ! Gearbox is almost back together with new gaskets, seals and a lick of paint.

Found underneath the black paint some of the original Sebring Red paint.   This is quite a cool coincidence, as this is a Capri fuel tank and the colour the car will be painted in.

Might as well carry on keeping the momentum going so next up for a tidy up is the front suspension, actually all I'll be using from the original is the crossmember.

The reason for only using the crossmember is i will be fitting a tension strut kit which gives a much stronger, adjustable and better located arms, and I can ditch the anti-roll bar to improve turn in on the gravel.

A couple of hours with a flap disc, some paint stripper and a small chisel to knock off bits of weld spatter. It's now ready to sandblast.

Evening all, the pics I took of the xmember are too big apparantly... anyway its all blasted and etch primered. Next on the to do list is the steering rack.  I started building this about 2 years ago.  It's a new quick rack kit , I was trying to find a modern rack end that would but was unable.  So here we are, plan B. Finish rebuilding it with standard rack ends.
