Sunday morning a few yard jobs etc.
No bootfair as I was awake from 3.15 to 5.00 and then snoozed to 07.00
Then onto a bit more tidying up on the welds, which had actually gone really well, with deep penetration.
Hammerite
Mickey was around for an hour or so too.
Before lunchtime, an unusual treat for me, I rarely drink beer. But the heat and feeling good about the finished rollbar necessitated it.
Second coat later in the afternoon when Nick was here.
In the afternoon, Nick came, we chatted a while, opened another beer(s) and pressure tested the cooling system, a clamp tightened up more saw it all show as dry.
Nice testing kit.
Pressure.
One of the small eyesore jobs to do was clean and rattle can the radiator in a dusting of satin black.
So once more dismantling the front end, well, it became twice.
Blacker.
While at it, I also made and folded a blanking plate for the top of the radiator to drive all the air over it, and also close up the view into the engine bay.
In the mean time Nick and John were trying to figure out the wiring and lights……
Reported above, and looking for a left hand light unit.
With the lighting failure, Nick then added some Riv-Nuts to the back of the bumper to retain the lower lip of the front grille.
After final assembly, the black blanking plate and grille do look a lot tidier too.
So a weekend with a fair amount of stuff getting done.
Thanks for checking in.
