Looking good Goff, not too bad a price for the carbs either.

Thanks Neil , Its giving me some heartache this body shell , Today taken the rear subframe off and re-drilled the mounting points as one wheel was sticking out around 12mm further than the other one Grrrrrrrr and bloody cold working outside , Carbs good buy i have been watching ebay for about 4 months , Prices can vary considerable ,These were pretty local also and not worn on the spindles is a bonus.
Neil are you coming over to Blyton this year ????? |

I won't make Blyton, the dates don't suit this year, I'm heading to Portugal for the IMM in May, can't afford to do both events unfortunately  |

OK ,A bit of a update .
Engine is in , What i did is cranked it over without plugs until i got oil pressure , 75 psi cranking " Great ", connected it all up ,fired up straight away ,Had to cut the front wheel arches as the tyres were catching both fronts on lock , fibre glassed and filled in , looks good now , still doing the body BUT getting close for first coat of polyester spray filler , photos attached , as you can see plenty of dust |

| update - Body is just about ready for first coat , BUT i thought i would offer the windscreen up to see if it would fit , NOPE it needs either the glass grinding and/or the body modifying , I think ill alter the body , on the nearside bottom screen pillar it needs some taking off , same pillar at the top it needs biulding up , photo's will tell the story . |
