Catch Tank In, Belts on. Nearly There


New years eve got in the way a bit and Renault supplying an incorrect part despite being given the part number screwed things up slightly.

Still nearly there now. The catch tank is in - I used an original mounting stud in the suspension turret and rivnutted an additional mounting in. The tanks fairly out the way and will allow plenty of room for the airbox.

Belts are also done, obviously with all new tensioners and rollers and it should be built up and running tomorrow ready for the Midlands meet in Nuneaton. I'm going to bodge a temporary induction/filtration setup together until the new AB65 airbox arrives for it middle of next week. The stack of new bits has been depleting over the past few days and we're now down to the final box!

Also bolted the new engine mounts in loosly ready for the covers to go back on.

Looking forward to driving it now!
