According to the tracking system, they haven't been delivered anywhere !  Just hoping that they are still in the back of a van somewhere, but that's not likely. |

They make everyone look good. Perhaps they have found, that they make more money from their premium rate, complaints line. Think I may give up on wire wheels and go for speed discs instead. At least I can make these easily and it would save a lot of bother |

So where does all this missing stuff go?? I have carbs and exhaust manifold missing for months. Just had a moment! It could be in one of Stinkeys black holes.

 Just bought a radiator, that if the dimensions I was given are correct, should fit snugly inside the rad shell. It even has the starting handle hole in the right position in the bottom tank. It's core area must be almost twice that of the Mini rad that came with the car and should be up to the job.

Well what a great read/build, top work looking forward to more updates. Andy
PS I built an English wheel to help out with the body work, only had one small go with it so far.

Nope  Yodel won't talk to me, so waiting on the sender to get back to me. Managed to find one more that should be on it's way. Not going to hold my breath waiting for any of these to actually turn up. Due to other problems, I've not managed to make any progress other than shimming the king pins . Thanks, NS Always fancied an English wheel, but don't think that I can warrant the cost, or space it would take up. So all shaping is done using brute force (usually hammers) and ignorance (not a clue what I'm doing). Seems to work for me. |
