Every day is that one step closer to revealing the finished project. Our 2023 Jaguar C-Type replica is coming on leaps and bounds now with the refit well and truly underway. John has been busy fitting the lights back up and the wiring back in.
The next biggest piece in the colour changing process was the bonnet and Alan has been making this a reality this week. We now have colour.
Meanwhile we have removed the spacer blocks from the boot lid pins. We have now fitted in place and masked in position.
We have heated up with hot air gun to reshape and periodically repeated the process over a few hours.
The front suspension braces are now spaced.
We have wire brushed and painted the rusty engine mount bolts and finished in black. The rusty calipers bolts have been wire brushed and paint in silver.
The fuel filler cap has been removed and the neck clamp has been slackened. Two of the screws have been removed and repositioned to the left in rotation before re-securing. Fit filler cap, grease seal and Loctite threads and knock up tight.
