What did you do with your early bay today

[68_early_bay]

Had a couple of hours this afternoon and thought I'd start stripping the engine

Heads are good vw ones no cracks that I could see will give them a good clean up :mrgreen:

The new bench is well and truly broke in now :mrgreen:

Hopefully will split the case next weekend :mrgreen:

If I can find my flywheel lock clamp...

I fitted my rear bumper and had a look to see where my oil leak is coming from. I think it is from the full flow oil system - well I replaced the jubilee clips and wiped the oil off and took it out for a run, unfortunately it was pitch black when I got home so I think I have fixed it I am not sure.

Got hold of some new hardboard and made some new ones!

Carfeully removed og cover, cut out new cards and stuck og to new backing!! Then a bloody good clean and all done 8)

Bit wrinkly at the bottom due to old board being totally gobe but at least i've managed to save them

Not today but Saturday, got my bus out the garage for the first time this year, though I know i'll go for a spin rather than driver it home and get to work on it. A mile down the road 'twang' and the clutch went. Took the pedal off and had a look but the cable all still connected and tight. 2 hour wait for RAC and the when the guy turned up advised the clutch has probably snapped. So got towed to my friends garage. 4 hour outing 1 mile under its own steam, 2 miles towed by the RAC.....hope its not an omen for this year :lol:

Today I took the luggage rack off to start prepping it and the main pop top for paint. I found this when I lifted the top off.

Now I know why my window behind the cabinet was fogging up in the wet weather.

Today I finished painting my pop top.

The color didn't come out to bad for not knowing what we were doing. LOL We used Rustoleum Gloss Almond mixed with Gloss White. I'm happy with the outcome. Now I wont have fiberglass particles getting in my arms when loading the luggage rack.
