The aluminum engine cover and tail end sheet metal is going well. There has been a lot of break forming, cutting, fitting, pounding welding and sanding. Still more to do but I feel like we actually made some progress. The neighbors are loving all the noise.
I think neighbours eventually get hypersensitized...I thought with the amount of noise I made while building the car that they would kill me, once their son went kind of postal when I was grinding at about 8.30pm, we then struck an agreement I would not make noise after dark and that seemed to be fine...but I know for sure if I made anywhere near that amount of noise now that they would definitely kill me, I know from the conversations I hear in their back yard....the tone gets angry when I'm bashing stuff
.The fabbing of the water tank was a highpoint, a fifteen gallon tank with four full size baffles made from 3/16 steel, that was a noisy week.
It's a great looking car you've got there, beautiful work.
