Decided to have a bit of a shuffle around after work as REW is now off the stands. Just need PDA round and I'll have them all home ;)

Finally got around to fitting the tank to PTH, the proper early type that's meant to be fitted :thumbup:
Trying to get the breather hose on behind the tank was a nightmare!

Also finished welding and filling one of the sills. I have the other sill to do and a few bubbles on the door bottoms then I'll take her to the paint shop for a touch up on the old Limeflower.

Dave, Ben posted in the 'Tapatalk image too large' thread in the 'Galleries' section that at the moment you have to avoid using the 'Preview' button to preview your pictures. If you upload them and place inline, and submit them immediately without preview, they all upload. I tried it last night with photos of starter motors elsewhere and it works. Ben says its a known software issue and he is waiting for an update.

Austin Ant - a failed military application? Surely it ought to be Olive Green not white? From this angle it looks a lot like a shrunken Land Rover Defender!

Curious rocker box shape on the Ant. If it's an A Series, it looks as though it is tilted backwards.

Looking good, Spal fan like mine?

How will you switch it on/off?

It's an Aeroflow. Uses a temp. switch in the hoses
Looks like an oven knob to set the point where it cuts in. .
