Default Monday's effort after Corowa

Took Monday off as a friend was down from Darwin and I was not too enthusiastic about returning to Melbourne. So, with little encouragement, we both worked in the hull and got some jobs done. Makes up for the small amount of work in the last 3 weeks.

We cut and installed all the radiator hoses and fitted new hose clamps. Use a smear of grease to assist in getting the hoses onto the radiator outlets and over the thermostat housings.

Installed the NOS choke & throttle cables into their correct positions, but discovered that the inner wire must be shortened and the linkage fittings shortened. Minor remediation work that can be done in the hull. The outer protective cover was a perfect fit.

The pics will give some idea, the 2 blokes are deep in thought about how it all goes together....
