Humber Update
Well all of the interior goodies that were missing have been painstakenly reproduced (minus a few ones that will be made after she is on the road), the drivers port was made from scratch and turned out beautiful!! Fabricated the tyre pump holder and oil can holder for the engine compartment. I still need to find a proper speedo and wiper motor. The engine was a complete rebuild with 0 hours on the clock now, new pistons/rings, gaskets, crank shaft balanced etc. Generator, starter were all rebuilt. It has all new cloth coverered wiring and I redid the instrument panel with colored wiring for trouble shooting. Proper tyres were found and will be on soon. The engine compartment is getting a wipedown then a respray and the engine will go back in. Then the interior will get a respray and then on to the exterior.. After a 1+ year rebuild, I am hoping to have her on the road by the end of the year!!!!

ITS ALIVE,,,it has been running for a few days, just finishing up some minor leaks, did some external markings today, starting to put in some interior goodies.. Still have to fix the temp gauge and amp gauge. All of the lights function per the book, need to do some touch up painting after everything is bolted back in. Going to take it on a test spin and hopefully to a event this weekend!!!
