Most of these are gone and I have only 2 originals but great to have them to copy.

I used some heat to bend the clips then re-tempered again

Very nice Colin. They shouldn't last long. They are the hard to find box at home.

Colin, you are a machine!

Hi all, I have just about completed a few sets of bottom engine heat covers. I don't think many of these survived as they are really hard to find. These are a 2 piece cover with aspestos in the originals. I have used fibro cement and spot welded the pieces together. I will be selling these if anyone needs some.

I had to make some serious press tooling to do these with quite thick steel not to mention a lot of them.

I've just finished the last press tooling and done the put one together. Also made some small rivets to fit the inspection plate as per the original.
