Nope, these old eyes can’t spot it!!

Love it, extra angle position holes in the wing mount?

Thanks IJ.

You have a rather large…..wing

Kind of feel like that scene in the Castle, where he says, “look Darl, Dale dug a hole!!”  Seems an awful lot of effort just to create a door, but still.  Not quite finished, still need to weld the top and score a new top hinge, but just about there..

That’s the issue with modern electronics.  It’s only as good as the signals it’s receiving I guess.

Sounds like fun though.

Both really, I wanted to retain as much originality where practical, but yes you can get them. The door skin I got are $670 each, the new inner frame (the bit I have repaired) is almost $1,000 each, so by the time you root around and consumables you are looking at almost $2k a door.  I figgered I may as well have a go at fixing it, worse case I…[Read more]

Very neat, close!!

We made all the earths, run the alternator wiring as well as the start loom. All off it has been heat sleeved and double heatshrinked over the ends.

Also managed to hook up the fuel system and do a full bleed. So it’s ready to roll. No leaks but I did cross connect one line. No b…[Read more]

We all do buddy 

^^ Whats the gold thing, that’s gorgeous!!  Bolwell?

Holy crap that was a long day.  This door seems to be a never ending story, but progress is progress I guess.  Made up a section where the lower hinge reinforcing box had rusted away,  happy how it tuned out.  Then spent a bit of time going over what I had done so far and wasn’t happy with the rest of the lower part of the frame so decided I may…[Read more]
