So, how you getting on this one then... Did you weld shaped steel on? Have been out in the dark yet?

by **BROWNYS V6** » Sun Sep 07, 2008 7:54 pm

yes i cut a template out of thin aliminium and bent and shaped it till it fitted right then flattened it out cut 2 pieces of steel and welded it in and filled it smooth

no i have not been out in the dark yet :lol:

but my headlights are sh!t£ anyway :lol:

Looks like a grand job your doing there

I looked at projector headlights, but they looked swamped by the area, but they would look just about right in those slotted headlamp areas

just an update on some more progress, i managed to figure out the pipes on the power steering rack and had a pipe made (thanks to vts tail lifts in hertford) and terry round the corner

so i now have power steering, just need to re-set the tracking.

also been out in the dark with my modded bonnet on and its official....... i can't see sh*t :lol:

so its either some sort of headlamp mod ie projectors or maybe just a bulb upgrade and wire in some relays we'll see

Simple and unusual = great effect.

Beautiful sounds eminating from the beasts exhaust today Browny :-)

Sweet.
The bonnet looked the nuts, I really like that.
And of course the new body colour...well, what can I say?
Dying to pickup my wellers now, and get them drilled, chromed, and fitted

Did you get it started and make it home ok?

by **BROWNYS V6** » Sun Sep 28, 2008 9:53 pm

yeah was a good day, started no probs, good as gold all way home just fuel evaporation cos it got too hot

the new colour is definitly growing on me, think i will do it with some proper paint
