Not quite full steam ahead as I didn’t get into the garage until 1pm. I have finished the other engine mount, I forgot to take any pictures with it in situ, but suffice to say the engine and gearbox was in the chassis, supported by its own mounts. I then stripped it all out put the engine by the garage door had a good tidy up finally getting two coats of etch primer on the mounts. [IMG][/IMG] Not sure what to do tomorrow but I should imagine it will involve welding the underside of everything I have welded so far, oh and fitting the handbrake cable guide CP14, then I will either have to pick the good book up or start cleaning Sierra parts. |
Aldi Digital micrometer go mental over 10mm...
Their Wireless doorbell packed in after a couple of months too.. TT |

Looking good
The engine mount's are looking tidy Ginge :) :)
Don't remind me of cleaning donor parts .... Can't say I am looking forward to that Job :eek: I guess that's why it hasn't been done yet :o |
Electrolysis is your friend!! Donor parts came up like new, and all you have to do is wipe them under running water when done, then get some paint on them PDQ!
Actually turned out to be a pleasurable experience, and had me looking for more rusty stuff to do!! Cheers Adrian |

Errrr well yes ..... That's what de-greaser and a pressure washer is for. :D Electrolysis is a method of removing heavy rust scale .... very effective too ;) Going to need a MF Electrolysis tank to fit an engine in, dread to think of the damage you'll do to the engines internals :eek: :D |
