Actually that color scheme could work....

Just paint the front bonnet lid red and front bumper white!

Just a little joke.

Seriously....
All your work looks great so far.
Keep it up and you will have a fantastic looking RSR very soon.

Good luck and cheers.

Today the weather is beautiful .......... so it's time for weld

I combined all the necessary parts for my filling of fuel.

Mess tin + cork diameter 104 + reducer 102/76 + reducer 76/50 + cut hydraulic tip which will be welded outside on the bottom of the mess tin to evacuate the water of streaming.

made it should look like that

More the joint rubber around the mess tin to make the waterproofness with the hood.

I makes you a tof when finished.

Brilliant! Instead of going to the Leclerc I'll go to castorama next time I'm in France :-)

yesterday, wehad lent me the good tool ! A kind of stretchable saw-bell to make of the big diameter and I was able to make my hole in the hood Polyester.

The idea is to let level the cork but not too much to avoid that we come to stole it to me in car park. (It will oblige me to open the hood to provide petrol but it is not a problem!)

Are you saying: 'The idea is to make the gas cap stick out but not so much as to allow it to be stolen in the car park' ?

Keep up the good work!

Yes Tim (excuses my poor english

i want the top of the cap arrived just a little bit up the hood, and so nobody (or with big difficulty) can take it.

This weekend, guard of child, my wife was on travel

Thus I just set one hour, while monsters seing a DVD, to empty all the inside, the seats, the diverse baguettes, the carpets, the belts....

I set up " to see " the new carpet and that is going to be good! It is really great, I am going to take you picture during the mounting.

Otherwise today in the post office my horn 12 volts (base of combi volkswagen) to replace original two horn and their support.

End of the restoration of reflectors bought just 20 euro but very rotten

Once defused and after to have removed the lot mud and dust that there was inside, one night of soaking, final cleaning of the rubber in the miracle product "Polytrol" .....

The plate is dead and there is only one on both reflectors.... so stainless plate, measure, metal cutting and drill ......

Installation

Reassembly of the glue restuck glass (the new will arrive at the end of project)

And both additional patches which will come inside the fiber bumper as additional help.

Now I begin the realization of the adapters for the corbeau seats on the original rails.
