That photo of the brake pipes on the rear diff looks like it is over the bump stop pad on the diff . You may want to shift it so it dose not get squashed by the bump stop.

Thanks, I had to go back and check it after you mentioned it. It’s partly how the picture is taken, it does clear but only just.
Think I’ll make a new one
Looking good!...and nice colour!
Oooh, I like that colour. [emoji106]
Well I wanted orange..... and that’s as orange as it gets.Quote:

while taking the dash apart I got sidetracked into switches, knobs and gauges...
Ignition switch...Attachment 159491
cleaning up nicely, but came to fit the new lock barrel from the UK and a problem... key don't fit lock...
Attachment 159492 that little tab sticking up should be flush, which means the key has a notch where there shouldn't be one. If I can get a new key over the weekend, I'll cut one that fits, otherwise it will go from a 5 lever to a 4 lever lock....
Gauges.. this one came from the spares car as it's the right age, the one in Sid I think is much later. Despite the state of it, the gauge works

Bead blasted
Attachment 159495
thought this would be a problem
Attachment 159496
but no, one of those little happy moments..
Attachment 159497
For those interested, the bolt is from a 2016 Reid ladies bicycle front light., I'll deal with the fallout from that later.
If you just file the one sticking up down flush it will work . I have made a few of my cars I have had lock alike that way.
Same here. Also doors.Quote:
