Thanks Kev, I did the wheel arches back here.

They are pretty good but I cant wait to take them off and put the clams on.

Cheers

Love the build stot

Can I ask where you got the glass for your windscreen and the Chanel?
I'm thinking of trying to fit one to my roadster

Thanks Carl,

Glass I haven't got yet but have the phone number of a guy who cuts Defender windscreens to shape keeping the relevant markings visible.

The channel and rubbers I ended up getting from an engineering company not too far away from us here but I collected from a pub in Letchworth in the end as the guy was having dinner there!

Edit: Actually the people who supply the windscreen may have the channel too.

I picked up an ex robin hood screen, toughened etc with kite marks off the bay of thieves. Is close to scuttle profile but with some ingenuity I think it will work. At £25 it was a no brainer to try anyway :D

I have been making gearstick and handbrake gaiters today. Some day I may remake the top of the trans tunnel so the holes are dead center to the gearstick etc but in the mean time I needed to find a way to mount the gaiter surrounds.

I ended up putting rivnuts into some thick card, punching through the carpet and using epoxy to glue the whole lot to the back of the carpet so I now have nuts in the carpet. (sounds like something from Kama Sutra)






Ill machine the surrounds from aluminium to finish.

Gaiters are in place and work great. I also made up a covered rear panel for the tub.




The filler bracket will be covered red too. :cool:

looking a nice build there! wont be long now before your having the wind in your hair and fly's in your eyes

Picked up some COPs a while back and got around to looming them up tonight. Just need to get a 10000uF cap to solder in and it should be plug and play.



Saves me having to mount the huge coilpack on the back of my shiney cam cover. :cool:

Hi All,

I got my COP finished and fitted along with the rocker cover today, I left out the capacitor as many people said you don't really need it.





I need to make a bracket to hold down the coils but it all works wonderfully.

Also fitted my front indicators which was the last electrical thing I had on my list.

Well done Andy....that is one exceptional looking roadster, it just looks the dogs in every respect... its amazing how a nice rocker cover sets off the look of an engine as yours does, I was not sure about the wheels at first, but now....they just look...."right"....testament to your judgement, now get that IVA.;)
