It was a pain in the ass! I'm very anal tried to get it as symmetrical as possible and straight as possible! if you do it use cupronickel (kunifer) brake pipe rather than copper, little bit more exspensive but much better quality

Gave the carbs a bit of a tidy up,



Drivers door hung wasn't as hard as I thought tbh



Also ordered my inlet manifold for the bike carbs... Only £240!! plus I bought a metre of silicone hose it's another £700 I didn't budget for I'm shit at sticking to budget!!

It's nice at the moment because I'm a full time grease monkey and I'm a part time farmer after work again like last year nice little boost to get bits done!

And talking about going 'out of budget' again I've opted for a fibreglass boot and bonnet boots off with Chris being moulded
