Re: Brads Tiger
Trial fit of the windscreen went ok this time, took nearly a whole day though to get the hood frame to latch into it without putting any stress into the windscreen frame.

Re: Brads Tiger
Dash top in, tricky picking up on the existing holes for the under dash securing bars, lots of measurements needed.

Re: Brads Tiger
Been leaving the boot springs for a rainy day after reading many horror stories about fitting them, as it turned out it was one of the easiest jobs i've done so far, you just have to use some slave bolts. https://www.dropbox.com/s/cj0ngog2a226wb3/IMAG4924.jpg?dl=0 New heater in https://www.dropbox.c...
