Been awhile since I last posted anything related to the carrier project. Haven't done anything major to it since I've been tied up with two BSA M20 projects. One completed and sold off already and I'm just finishing off the second which will be a keeper.
Managed to put my breather pipe back on the engine since having pulled it off before resolving my original fuel supply issue more than a year ago. I'd removed it and plugged the two holes to eliminate that as a possible problem with fuel/air flow. You can really see how dusty everything is. Maybe an old parachute would do the trick to keep it cleaner while being stored.
I'm still waiting for a long overdue Waltham speedometer which I sent off to be restored several years ago. But decided to plug my spare mid-war production jeep speedometer in to fill the void for now. That meant having the fun of running the uninstalled speedometer cable back to the rear end with everything else already in place. The angle drive I got from Ray worked perfectly so thanks again for that.
And the current thing I'm playing around with is more weapons mounts. Just drilled and bolted up a rifle clip beside the gunner which isn't per spec for a T-16 but certainly will come in handy. Next will be the brass mount for an AA pogo stick if I can figure out a place that won't interfere with other mounted gadgets.
