A little update...

Did a little more work on the little wonder..

The wiper motor in now on..

The brake and fuel pipe is installed, as well as the steering rack.

Also the rear suspension is on, and yes i did remember the little fuel pump vent thing behind the frame ;) . Not funny to forget, and find out later I think

Is that the correct bracket for the fuelpipe on a LHD '64? -
(I tought that was the bracket for the engine tie-rod, does a '64 use the same on both sides?)
(FWIW - I'm asking - not telling!) :)
Cheers,

The fuel pipe bracket on a left hand drive car is different to the one shown.

Hi Guy´s..

You´re both right. ;) I did not have the correct one with the, so are just waiting for it, so this is just temporary so I could get on with the rest of the fuelpipe..

The correct one is part no 14A6734
