It's looking great. I would be scared to touch it!  Thanks for the pics. David Now in the garage waiting for me top start the rebuild without scratching it hopefully Paul I am crapping myself, already chipped it putting the gutter trim on, luckily my mate at the body shop wants it back to touch up and polish when i have built it, shouldn't be too bad hopefully.

thanks chaps, small set back
I was bleeding the brakes the other day and stared losing alot of fluid with no evidence of fluid externally. Eventually fluid slowly crept out of the vacuum pipe of the servo, obviously a seal must be passing or stuck in the servo. I had rebuilt the servo with all new seals etc, followed all the instructions, downloaded exploded diagrams, double checked everything, everthing perfectly clean and still i failed. I have spoken to JL spares who supplied the kit and they agreed to test and repair it for me at a reduced cost. So i have had to strip the servo out and send it off, so can't drop the car on to its wheel yet. Luckily no fliud has got on the paint work.
These things are sent to try us.
Paul

Thought Paul might be just about finished by now! I met Paul at Tatton Park a couple of years back before the resto started and it was a smart looking car even then. Chris. |

Wow - thanks for that - looking great.
Hope the knee gets better.
Any frustrating parts of the re-assembly or has it all gone according to plan?
Cheers
Andrew

Cheers Andrew Hi Andrew Thanks for that, not really just putting other people botches right and sourceing parts, not that i really had a plan. It will still be a work in progress as i will eventually re unholster, headlining and new glass all round paul |

It occured to me that there might be an overload of green - even the engine! It looks superb, Paul, get it done. Tatton Park perhaps? Chris. |
