At the engine shop progress are made and just take a look at those rockerarms and the pushrods.. What a seight.

Christmas morning has this calmnes that are very subtile from the day before, it´s like the whole world stops for a second and inhale...

It´s litteraly like Christmas everytime I receive the weekly update from the workshop.

The bodywork and chassis are now ready to be put on the rottisere and from there the work begins, cutting out the rotten parts and replace them with new metal and aluminum.

At this stage the body has been cleaned and applied a coat of epoxy primer to protect and prevent surface corrosion when working on those arreas that need some attention.

It´s been a while since I got any news from the company in Italy who are in charge of the rebuild of my engine, but it seems to that we are near a turning point in theese matters.

Only a few days ago I received photos of the doors with signs of rust and pitting, mainly in the lower part of the steel construction, a quite common place where water gets trapped, combined with no or poor rustprotection it will slowly but surely starts to rot away.

The restoration of the body and chassis are, despite the set back at the previous workshop in pretty good progress.

In every major restoration there are countless hours of preperation of parts, and with that another set of countless hours of giving those parts the finishing touch and get it ready for the reasembly.

If I say Italy, UK, USA, Austria, Holland, Denmark and Portugal
