Looks nice polished but I doubt I'll go that far.
Google CORROSION X for a great product to keep them this way.
Need to find some AUD tags for you to make them complete.
Very nice job

Looks stunning and really inspirational. Would you mind letting us know the process you use to get the manifolds and carbs polished to that standard. Is it with compounds and polishing wheels?? I have a few steering wheels I want to try to revive. Many thanks. Mark

Hi There....
Thank you very much for your kind words.....
Yes, i spend a few hours on thoose carbs. used polishing wheels ( and compunds yes ), and a lot of rpm´s! on the grinding machine. (2800). You can´t get it like this by hand.
Used small polishing wheels on a drill machine to get in all the corners and places you can´t get on the big machine....

Great post. Any chance you could add a 'how to' guide in the technical section? Might help other forum users. Cheers. Mark

Looks as if your well on your way.

Hi Scott...
Sorry for my delayed answer.... been bussy for a while...
Anyway... I do have a NOS AEG 148 cam for the 1071( Pin drive ), as I want it to be as original as possible. but used a 276 degree cam on is for now( Kent cams) ... Know theese cams for many years with good experience
The final drive is the original 3.76 on my geabox....................
How is your project Scott????
René
