Looked yellow to me in the first pic on first look...

TT

Lol ! Says the tango king to his new apprentice ! Luke, I am your tango father ! :D awesome job mate, keep it up !:D

It looks a different colour on every picture and different again in real life! Its RAL2009 if that helps.

We managed to start the water plumbing last night as we finally received the silicon hose.





Need to make some kind of supports for the pipes yet and get the header tank plumbed in too.

Fantastic looking build!
Also, very impressive progress for only 2 posts ;)

Looks likle the 2 of you are storming ahead with consistent progress, I will be keeping an interested eye on this.

Yeronge !:p

Make sure the pipes have sort of flange on them or they blow off under pressure.

Very nice looking build Tom :cool: congratulations, and I'm looking forward to see what is coming.

Did you make sure to use special silicone sleeves to connect your carbs to the manifold? They look to be the same kind as the hose you use for water to me. If it is so, they will not resist the fuel vapors. You need special silicone hoses, fuel resistant, which have a spacial inside layer (fluorine kind of component if I remember correctly).

Looking good and your making great progress.
One thing I noticed is your single fixing for your roll bar stays. This was a iva fail early on for AshG so you may want to consider changing that.

Also the rear brake lines are fowling the chassis, I don't know if that has been sorted since this pic.

Its different stuff, made for fuel cheers.

Hopefully the brake lines just need tweaking round a bit when its sat on its wheels.
Any ideas for how to do the roll bar stays didn't realise they had to have more than one fixing we just followed the book :confused:

These were Ash's fails
You could do something like this, a second bit of triangulation the other side of the upright. A wider plate at the bottom of the stay and on the tub frame to take 2 bolts. Wouldn't require that much cutting/welding and would make sure there were no problems at iva. It may have been a 1 off but I would hate to take that chance.

My rear stays have only one captive bolt fixing and no comment on it at IVA. It may be one of those things which is the personal preference of the tester.
