Been playing with the 3D printer again.

Before.



After.



At the moment I'v left it red as the car's going to be red but that might change.

Mike – Is that one carb HUGE?

As I’ve got two of those pancake filters on my little 1500 engine.

Either way, glad to hear it is running.

No, it's a standard weber twin choke carb off a Ford Essex 3lt V6.

Finally I made the effort and fitted the doors.

Drivers side


Passengers side.


Not a bad fit as it was not an easy task because they open at about 45%.





The blue wire hanging out of the open door works the latch opener until I figure some thing else out.

Exciting stuff - I love the point where a project gets its first coat of primer and looks all one colour for the first time.

Mike – The BRG looks great.

Do you still have a buyer lined up for this ‘Jag in a Jag’?

Good luck, Paul.

I'v done a small upgrade on the truck and replaced the original intercooler with a larger one from a L322 Range Rover..



It sits nicely across the front of the radiator, it needed not serious cutting to fit and I was able to use the original pipework to plum it in.



There's not much noticeable diferance in general driving with the larger intercooler but the truck certainly develops more torque up hills.
