i'll get the beam bult up and then i can move it out and get some pics.

Bought a couple of goodies at the Volksworld show, Some braided fuel line, some anodised fittings, electric fuel pump.

Also my new steering wheel boss turned up from ISP west in california, very nice, made from billet ally, and machined, far better than the Flat 4 one i was looking to get and a better price,as the flat 4 you had to buy the horn at an extra costs to boss so this was just over £100-00 to the uk.

some pics.











genuine NOS Speedwell Formula steering wheel, never fitted still has brass plugs in the middle to be drilled out.





will get the other pictures i promised this week.

beam now built up, and starting to finish all the little niggly bit's on the pan.

The Speedwell is gonna look the nuts with that boss and horn push very nice indeed...oooo what is that lurking in the background of the last pic...Shhh!

This is looking great Andy! What a perfectionist you are

We had a peep a couple of months ago when we came up to the unit to pick up a deck lid from Gunges mass collection of them, and I've gotta say, its come on loads since then!
