There is a 'Sam Brown' belt stud fitted through the door top trim piece. The pull strap has 3 punch holes through it which allow the window to be:

- Closed
- Halfway
- Open

The stud is just about visible in the above picture.


Something like this:

Sam Brown 5/16" Nickel Plate Button Stud


Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris,

How is the paint holding up? Would you do it again?

Thanks for the kind comments

I haven't been on here in awhile but, bit by bit, things are still progressing:

Don't forget the starter ring, Don't forget the starter ring, Don't forget the starter ring.....



B*****ks, forgot the Throw-out Bearing...



Back off, and back on again...Thats better


...and, Y'know when you spend afew hours head scratching why an oil hose won't fit....well it is always worth checking if the connector piece was put on the right way round in the first place











The fibreglass tinware took abit of work and 'shaping' to get it all to fit. Still, that does now mean that the engine is finally ready to go in...

Paint is still good, the true test will come when I eventually start using the car. I have needed to take afew areas back to bare metal for some construction changes, but these have been re-painted, sanded and polished without any signs of the work being done.

I don't know if I would do the process again, the process lended itself to this type of build.....If I take on another project, I think it will be a more 'conventional' rebuild.

Some more money saving...

Mirror picked up for 10 dollars !!! which was worth it alone for the 'old school' box graphic...


fitting plate is too small to fit, so cut a piece of plate and bolt it through...




weld around, remove bolts and plug weld the hole...


dress the weld...


and painted, ready to fit

There is something missing...



Car, it is finally time to meet your engine...




Its taken a long time to get here, but the engine and gearbox went in in about half an hour...


and I am man enough to admit, I did shed a tear...

Onwards...
