Update on my Sylva leader

[Spybot84]

Hi guys been a while.

I have fully stripped my leader painted the chassis, sorted all brakes, new gearbox, new prop shaft, new radiator and fan.

I now have the job of full re wire, all round new lights. Spray the body and then sort interior.

Hopefully will be back on the road for summer

any chance of some pictures? nice to see before/after shots if you don't have any of the process.

what colour are you going on the body? what are you doing on interior?

this reminds me - I must update my own build log!

I will try and get some pics up soon. I have painted the chassis red with hammerite so as to keep part of the original colour. The body will be sprayed Matt black and then I have designed some stickers in white and red to bring a bit of colour back.

Not sure what I'm doing with the interior as yet but re carpeting and putting in s new dash.

The car has now been fully stripped so will be installing new floor pan also.

Got a nice new radiator which I also have to plumb in.

Just welded new mounts and installed the type 9 gearbox as was sick of the old 4 speed.
