The old foam in the tank was dust, so it was boiled out and refinished. Haven't stuffed the new foam in yet but should be fun.

Paint is finished, the resto shop will bolt the doors and lids on next week and we'll start assembly soon after. Glad I didn't change the color much as I thought about it, really digging the classic safety orange after all.

We probably won't get the FG engine tin from F-S-H in Germany until late January, so if it's completed by March it will be a miracle. Interior details are gonna be fun!

Of course, you're right. Steady progress... lids and doors fitted, headlight actuator works great, soon back to Klubsport for the drivetrain.

Still waiting for some parts from Germany, but finally got good news that the brightwork is on the way, and all of the rubber has been accounted for. Time to polish some glass.

Used the same "D" handle for the lights as for the engine lid. Cheap and easier than adapting the hood release part.
