Thanks very much both, I’m very pleased with it, and it’s nice to hear it gives others inspiration.

Swapped over my Alternator and gave the oil filter housing and Air Conditioning compressor a bit of a spruce up.
Was a bit of a pain in the bum to be honest, due to one of the lower bolts clashing with the Air con pressure switch. Which meant that the compressor had to be pulled forward. I future proofed it by shortening the bolt by 4mm (still more than the required standard for thread engagement).

I still need to swap the engine mount cradle and sort the engine mount but that will have to wait until another part gets finished.

Small addition to the engine bay today, fit a Racingline oil cap to match the rest of the set. I’m leaving the dipstick, as the yellow ties in with other details.
I’ve also had word from Mr Carbon that he is making progress Carbon skinning the timing chain cover; I’d previously been told by others that it wouldn’t be possible, so I can’t wait to get that back now.

Just when you think this can get any better.
You just pull something out of the bag.
Top work as always.
Looking forward to seeing your master pieces again 👌

Had to grab a photo with my old van today. I still think it’s a cool van, even though it is always filthy these days.

Thanks mate, it’s just a shame it’s an absolute stone magnet.

Front bumper needs painted again now, I may consider it once it’s done. It’s just finding someone who is actually good at it, as I’m yet to see a wrapped vehicle that doesn’t have blade marks somewhere, so I imagine ppf will be the same.
