Good progress William, what was the engine bay like for rust ?
I never seen that when Freddie had it...
someone had covered all the joints with sealer at some time, it looked a mess, but keep the water out tho. some small rust round the legs, but i have seen worse. there was a hole in the battery box and a hole where the bonnet cable comes thew the bulk head.Quote:

The engine bay seams look very good!
Cant wait to see this finished sometime!!
Seam sealer is nasty stuff, traps water too. Hole should be there for the cable, be next the the throttle cable hole.Quote:
