The garage is being washed on Monday and Tuesday. I've got a borrowed spot on a different floor so that I can move the car during the night and get my spot washed. So, just like last year, it's move time!
Started by assembling the headlights. The lamp case had a rubber seal that had to be removed to put the dip and main lights lamp. Rubber seal back on, another seal had to come off for the standing lamp. Get the wires plugged and the wires through the hollow bolt on the casing and use the pins I'm holding on first photo to hold the lamps casing against the rim of the outer case. The rim had some groves where it slotted. Then bolt the rim to the outer case and job done. First one took me almost an hour, the second one less than 10 minutes. Experience does count!
Then, already on the garage, jacked the car up and riveted and rivnuted the underside of the panel. It went well so I could move to the next phase: grabbed the exhaust can, fitted it to the other part of the exhaust and held it all with ropes and the jack to get it in position. Drilled the plate that was on the can to attach to the car and the floor of the car. Bolted it all and it was all good. Before assembly I put exhaust assembly paste on the junctions. Then tightened the bolts on the clips that help hold the exhaust together.
This was all for the day. Jacked the car down and took the battery home to charge it. Sunday would be to try to get the car moving and do other small jobs.
