Steady Progress
Well, we've fitted the new fibre timing wheel - just in case the original was damaged, so the engine is complete and runs well bar fitment of the cooling fan.
Today we used the twenty ton press to good effect and straightened out the front cross member, a remarkable achievement considering it suffered complex buckling. It is currently drying after a coat of phosphate primer.
The front panel has seen both the driver's & passengers sides damaged panels removed and straightened. The front panel framework has returned someway to its original shape naturally and will get more treatment shortly.
A friend has unearthed a derelict C15 which may or may not donate a radiator and a cooling fan plus more perhaps. I'm going to have a look at the donor on Friday. Either way the radiator matrix will need renewal.
This coming weekend will see work start on separating the door inner & outer skins.
