wheels look well with the colour fella! keep your chin up it will all be worth it when its finished, As for the servo If your struggling just send it to me and I will sort it.... A damn site cheaper than buying another one! Also I will be on with your door/qtr cards this week,Nick.
i rememeber reading somewhere in your thread about you buying little rose jointed ends and bar for your gear linkage keith(but with the size of this thread id have no chance of finding it now).
i was wondering if you'd be willing to share the information about them....as i was wanting to do that to my cavlier turbo here..
pm me even if that suits m8.
thanx
Well, Some good progress made today by Me and Cormac (thanks again bud!!)
First off, I removed the cover and tryed to get rid of all the dust (dunno how it got dusty under the cover)

First thing was to finish wireing the fuel pump, and plumb it with some new fuel lines.

Fuel lines on the floor:

And finally up to the bay, Feed has the masking tape on it, and the other is the return. I held the fuel rail and pipes up and they are within perfect reach.

Then I removed the heater matrix, and cut the pipe back short, then fitted the Silicone hose with the jublie clip behind the bulkhead so it wont come off.

Meanwhile Cormac was busy making up the new copper brake lines from the flexi's to the rear calipers:

And he renewed the front brake pipes too as the original coating was coming off. I'm going to leave the rear's original tho as they are still 100% perfect.

Until next time.........

looking very nice keith , you hoping to make PV ?
I didnt think it was possible before today. But now I know that once the dash go's in, all the electrics are fine. Its just a matter of sorting a retrim, and getting the engine back with enough time to MOT/Tax and Insure it.Quote:

ive ended up not cleaning engine and missing a few other jobs i wanted to do so i can get it ready , ill just have to do them all after pv lol
If only we had the engine back it would only take us a few days to get her finished bar the interior, so fustrating if you dont make it for Pv but im hopefull boss!!
I think your suggestion of Trailering it over if its not MOT'd is a good idea mate. But hopefully we dont need to fall back on Plan B.
Keith
looking well now keith,
