			I notice you are using straight hoses on the lower rad to water pumps. Although you are using silicone hose, which will bend reasonably easy, you might want to consider using the preformed rubber hoses from a 52 Ford. It reduces the stress on the lower rad outlets. Check this link where we discuss the lower rad hoses: http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=24900 |

 Be aware that if you have to change your water pumps to the new version with better sealing, the preformed lower hoses will be too short as the new pumps have shorter outlets. (see my post in the restoration forum).

			In the Corona era, we stopped working on restoration. Now we are back, the engine is installed with pipes. I worked on adjusting the braking and steering rods. Attached some pictures.

|  After a few years of work, we are driving the Bren first test drive 
			
			Today the Bren is finally  moving there is still a lot of work to do but for the first time we took the Bren out of the workshop for testing there are many more things to do and work on it but we can say that we are in the right direction there is tremendous progress. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMy1Xmi6Ac0&t=5s https://youtu.be/EMy1Xmi6Ac0 We look for the problems that pop up and fix what is possible inside the Bren we plane to take out the gearbox, Engine and radiator and after painting bring back inside all parts. And final issue is the panel wiring and lights, so a log way to go... Israel
