progress and wiring Qs
I have attached a couple of pics to show you where I have got to, after a concerted effort the last few weeks. Also a pic of Pop Browns alternater
bracket which shifts the whole thing over to the left bottom side of the engine-works a treat and for £40 saved me a lot of fiddling to make it fit
on the other side and miss chasis and hose. Chris at Pop Browns is a real star.
Next jobs are fit rear wings and get engine going to make sure I built it right. On the loom, I need some guidance as to how to quickly wire the
circuit so I can see if it runs then finish the rest. I have a mallory dual point and an RPI alternator. If anyone can help, I live in Letchworth so
if anyone wants to come take a look, I will offer lunch and a beer or 2! I will be at Peterborough at weekend so will touch base with those that are
then on Saturday.

Yep... Made me a bracket to mount the alternator low down and shift it 10mm so I could run it off a different pully than normal...
ps I got my timing 180 deg out on top dead center when I first started the car and the flames coming out of the top of the carb where
spectacular....
Good luck with starting it up ...It brings a big smile to your face

Phil, I'm not sure if you are going to the Peterborough show, but, if you are ( yes I knoew its short notice) then could you not trailer the car
there like I will be doing and then between you Big John, your self and I we could have a build workshop going with the ultimate aim of getting your
car running at the week end?. I shall probably be bringing some wiring tools so that I might complete some of my wiring at the weekend any way. I am
also sure that the rest of the lads would be pleased to help if they could while they are there.
