well what an eventful morning, primed the arches and a pic of my ramp wheel free, i love it its a 4 poster then runs wheel free like a 2 poster





then remasked it up to blend base coat, i found what casued the rear right back bottom arch rot it was full of yen lol





and wheels on, its by no means perfect but will stop the rot and tidy enough for its purpose




but the main thing is it starts and runs idles at 14.7 warm, it had blown a dump valve blank out from inside the bumper ! very difficult to see it but i found it blanked it off and its running and fueling perfect sat in the barn idling and revving.

just need the paint to fully set then il run it up the road, oil pressure is 2 bar hot idle, 6 bar from 4k revs up so looks good for stock oil pump.
