As the GT6 gets nearer to completion I keep on finding yet more little jobs to finish off, having a note book beside me most of the time helps as I can jot it down and make sure I tick it off later once done.
Over the weekend I fitted up the remaining brake hoses on the rear of the car and checked over all the hose connections, just as well as I also found some loose.
Seeing as I had the back end up in the air again to do the brakes, I found time the free up one of the adjustable rear radius arms. It obviously had not been adjusted for some time and will probably need altering once the car is on the road and I get a chance to have all of the wheels aligned.
Inside the car all of the painting I plan to do has been completed and now needs to be left to cure for a week or so.
Been going great guns with the Adheseal, putting together the quarterlight latch, which was broken when I bought the car.
Also made a start on laying down some of the sound deadening, just a few pieces in the engine bay that would be easier to put down while there was good access. The inside of the gearbox tunnel will be lined out, but I rather not do that until the rest of the tunnel has been made. The deadening material came from Canada, as despite import charges and shipping costs, it still worked out cheaper to buy direct from the supplier. It is only 1.6mm thick, but is super sticky and had a reflective layer on the outside, so it should be good at preventing some of the engine heat from getting inside the car.
