16th & 17th March - Day 5&6 - odds & ends and Gearbox/Engine prep.

Spent Friday evening and Saturday finding off some of the small jobs. 

After receiving another box off missing parts I could now fit the front brake pipes.

Also fitted horns, washer bottle and jet and the engine mounts (removed some of the paint underneath the LHS mount to get a good earth).  Heater went in without much of a problem - removed battery and the eased the front of the heater panel - containing the vents - behind the dashboard wiring.

Connected the bell housing to the gearbox and fitted the clutch release gubbins, loosened the filler plug. Fitted the U-shaped hose on the back of the engine - after trimming a couple of inches off each end of the pipe. So with lots of pipe insulation protecting the chassis I'm nearly ready for the engine install next weekend.
