got the radiator and standard fan put back on with a bit of modifying, then got all the water pipes back on and filled it up with water to check for leaks, no leaks so started it up

here is a short video of it running, it isnt smoking its where i have had my dirty hands and it is burning off, nothing to worry about :)

Image

and some of the progress my dad has been making with the gte dash, got both faceplates smooth and bonded together

finished painting the front brakes and got it back on its wheels to have a look what it sits like with the new lump in it
