A Little Update

Over the weekend I managed to progress a little further with the fitment of the radiator and the recovery bottles. This was very straight forward and simply a matter of sitting the radiator and brackets in a position that allows the brackets to align with the side mounting panels and somewhat semetrical with the fresh air holes in the mounting panels.

After playing around with this set up for a while I managed to get everything to line up with a little bit of tilt on the radiator which I think looks good. Finished product below:

I also managed to mount the radiator recovery and overflow bottles:

The 16" electric fan and shroud was also fitted to the radiator


Another small achievement was the fitting of the dripy thing that drains the water from the cabin in the event of a down pour.

My engine and trans has finally left L.A. where it has been since mid January because of the dock strike and is scheduled to be in Aus on the 8th April.

Should have exciting news in my next post as the engine and drive train should be here.

Cheers

Russell
