I stuck it out until my back said no more, I've sorted out the brake pipes and bled the brakes, the clutch was more trouble than I'd ever expect, I could not shift all the air out of the system, but finally got it working, the slave cylinder rod was also 10mm too short so I removed it and welded a bit of rod to the end of it, so the clutch now works, I also sorted out the engine timing and the leaking carbs, had the engine running again and all sounds well. I fitted the exhaust box then removed one of the 4 fuse, fuse boxes ( Very old type) and fitted a 6 fuse Euro type box, wired it up and connected the overdrive wiring to it. A few more jobs and I'll be back on the body and painting again - boy this job is getting a tad drawn out, I'd swear I could have built a whole new car kit by now.
