Hi everyone, the 2 pounder is back from the sand blaster and work has started. I have made and fitted the exhaust system while its upside down and given the underside a coat of paint. That part is finished so I won't have to get underneath later. I cut the wings and back off as it was not in very good nick so some new body is in order. I will probably flip it over tonight and get a few more pics then post them.
by 4 now  Colin.

Beauty job..

Beautiful job ...I thought it may be a smart idea when the exhaust pipes were run originally that the angle iron would have been higher ,above the top of the pipe to protect it from being crushed on the firts rock you run over or high center on..even a small inverted channel iron tacked on over the pipes would do the trick..restricted exhaust pipes from crushed pipes soon lead to problems...Just a thought..

i cant get my head around why they ran the pipes outside in the first place it oulde have made more sense to run them inside the engine bay then through the rear bulkhead pannel and up thus no pipes getting crimped, probably cheaper to manufacture as less welding too. obviously on the mortar type carriers this may not have been possible but surely on the scouts and regular Brens it would be dooable
