I had a good pattern of the other cam plate cover which also incorporates the battery base holder. These parts are made out of 3mm.

The other side of the battery base is now made and welded in place.
All the mounting blocks for the fuel tank supports were pretty ordinary so the easiest way is to cut them all off, make new ones and weld them in.

Here I made a set of press tooling to make the clutch and accelerater tunnel cover. I have 1 reasonable one left but I am going to keep this as a pattern.
This is just the bottom part of the die.

The top part is the easy bit although it was handy to find the right size pipe. The bottom part was a tail shaft that I sliced down the centre and the top pipe was an old hydraulic cylinder and that was real good because they are usually quite thick and you do need a bit of strength to press the metal.

The fuel tank brackets are done and painted but I still have to put the felt on them yet. the last picture it the rod tunnel painted and bolted in place. I need to make some fuel tanks soon as well.

The inside is as far as I can go with the carrier on its side. I have installed the fuel tank brackets and refurbed and fitted the rear gearbox mount as well. With the aid of my very good helper Andrew we turned the carrier on its wheels and he took it outside so we can give the workshop a good clean.
