Another update n the restoration.
After i stripped the whole floorpan i treated it with metall-ready and painted it with por 15. Didn´t find any new hole, all solid and nice (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Not sure about the further painting. Maybe i will use some modern underbody stuff? or use wax? any suggestions? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge6.gif) Attached image(s) |

What happened to the six conversion? Still gathering parts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) i have the carbs to bee rebuild by an professional, think they are back mid february (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) oillines are the last missing parts, so far as i can see. Engine tin is on the way, i hope it arrives the next few days. Motor mount is also on the way. Still have to buy a ignition system, maybe the original cd or an msd? Will post pic´s of the other parts when they arrive. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge6.gif) |

Do you need a headlight blind on the drivers side? Hi John, sorry but i forgot to tell you that i was able to purchase a factory set of engine sheet metal. So i don´t need your nice reproduction. I own the headlight blinds, but have them on the shelf since i have to do some restauration (painting ) in that area. I was a little lazy on that project (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge6.gif) |

Have you converted your oil cooler yet -I'm struggling with mine? Hi James, i did some research and theoretical design to convert mine.
