RE: Ivan's coupe, [bolting shit on]
Today I bolted the very first parts on my bare chassis.
Had all kinds of plans of things to do, mostly leading towards getting the shell back on its feet for bodywork. While the body is still in the rotisserie I wanted to get the jobs out of the way that are no fun when working from underneath the car. First thing that came to mind is the fuel tank assembly + lines. I quickly abandoned plans to clean up the fuel lines after wasting 30 minutes trying to get the old undercoating off of them. Bent up a new front-back brake line (used cunifer) because I want my brake system to be 100% new lines, then mounted the whole line assembly. I'll have to buy some rubber hose and a new one way valve to get this to look as fresh as it needs to be: I am still missing 2 clamps that I'm hoping may still be in my basement, if not I will bend something up myself. Putting the fuel tank in was a no-go because I also managed to misplace the rubber linings for the tank straps. In a moment of joy I managed to find them in some obscure box before I went home so next time it's going in. Anyone happen to know what size the fuel pump bracket bolts are? Pretty sure my old ones wont survive removal and dont have many bolts smaller than M5 in my bolt inventory. FABRICA MI DIEM, PVNC! |
