Car looks fantastic

[bobmk1]

Cheers for all the comments folks.

The car is now home and awaiting its custom wiring loom to be fitted.
Then its back to work to fit the exhaust, brake and fuel lines, get the coolant hoses and breather system plumbed in.
Then its interior back in and get the old girl fired up.

Im not rushing it (as you can probably tell)
So all being well it will be on the road early next year

Well then.......... Our little Anglia kind of took over for a bit this year! But im glad to say that after a long period in storage I finally got a week on the old girl

So on monday Jon from Modern Historic delivered her back to Morleysport HQ and decided he would give me hand to get as much done as possible.


First up was to sort through all the boxes and work out what i had left to fit.



Some nice shiney bits...



Odds and sods, its the little bits that make the diffrence...





The brakes are all plumbed in (cylinders, handbrake lever and cable, bottles, braided hoses and metal brake pipes)





Changed the rocker cover, fitted the rad, fan, alternator and pulleys.







Filter king, fuel tank, catch tank, qtr bumpers and starter motor fitted.







99% finished engine bay....


Still loads of little bits to do including the wiring
Massive thanks to Morleysport and Modern Historic
