The end is nigh......
I finally got the engine cover and tool plate off to the sandblasted the other week and returned nicely cleaned and primed. A cote of KG No.3 and the engine cover was shoehorned into place - This where that gantry is worth its weight in gold.
The lower engine covers were fitted. These are a set of Colin Jones that I bought a few years ago. The back covers needed some very slight mods - to clear the oil pipes and the holes needed slotting. They fit perfectly and look a million dollars - a tribute to Colin’s excellent craftsmanship.
Next - sewing, camo, leather and road testing!!!
