Rubber fuel lines were my first thought as well especially as I'm thinking of puting the petrol tank in the boot.

Been away for a week but got a lot of little odds and sods done on the body today and then made a start on getting the rest of it back together.



Its a good feeling seeing the chassis back rolling. Means that I can start bolting the scrap heap of a garden back to it!

Nice one man, as I said on book face if you need a hand then let me know!

Just got all week off work and probably part of next week.

Just got the body up on its side and further into the gazebo with a lad from work who kindly dropped my back home after my short trip to convince my boss

Gunna get out there now and finish the last few bits of welding that were underneath when we did the arches.

Then its time for paint... filler.. more paint...

Dan

I know there's more progress where are the pics

Here goes then. Big update. Have been working on it all daylight hours but Call of Duty has kept me away from here. Going back to work tomorrow so will be back on here on my new phone using forum runner. (Samsung Galaxy Note by the way so a lovely huge HD screen to read on!)

The new manifold turned up




Got the bulkhead work all ground back nice




The bottom primered up




and the new arches trimmed
















Then painted




The inside stripped and primered






Then got to work on the outside






Then blended the arches into the body






Then got it all ready for paint




AND THEN FINALLY A TOP COAT GOES ON

Sorry but I've just finished and it was dark so the photo isn't the best.




So glad the bodys done but still got to strip and paint the doors, boot, windscreen, and bonnet!

Dan

That looks like a right nice job you've done there Can't wait to see it all finished.

Awesome effort! what progress! must have been a busy week. love the colour too going to look awesome once back together

Nice, looking good, it's worth going right through these things, you never know what rust you will find, and it will be solid for years to come. Nice one
