Carbs look so good all cleaned up.
Is it an original loom?

Worth spending the extra money to get them mint that's for sure!!!!

Original loom, just mucked up a plug thing.

So this thing is really almost done now, another hour om this last night with brendan....where it's actually just brendan looking at wiring diagrams, I'm just keeping him hydrated.

I can crank the engine (just a tiny one time to check) but not the fun version till I get a funnel for the filling of oil.

So that, some fuel to make it go vroom vroom.

A dizzy redo as I have a broken clip, luckily brendan has a spare for every 2 spares of everything. Will sort that Monday night hopefully.

Unfortunately I'm away in southland visiting my piglet this weekend so fingers crossed for an xmas present to myself getting to drive this thing.

Long day today but did buy a really good nick dizzy en route home.
Tomorrow is tentatively the day for start up depending on work......
I'm hopefully going for a wof end of the week once I fit seat belt.
Speaking of, anyone have a black passenger coupe seat belt for sale or borrow? Complete please.

It lives.
I don't know how to upload a video sorry. Feel free to tell me.

Gist of it is .......
Brendan is the man. Whatever he did worked. Extra wire here and there etc. She lives.

Dialed in cam at 3k rpm for 10min held by hand on the carbs (stupid btw, I mucked up the cable ties) but it's alive and ready ! Fucking finally.
Video is on fb because that's an easy upload. Don't know how to link it sorry

Even drives now......

Wof may be an issue as no low beam. No seatbelts. No speedo.
If someone tells me how to video upload I can. Or a comittee member can access my acc and do it for me?

Been honing around halswell and it's no slouch surprisingly. Gemmas mini would still win, but hopefully only just.
Adam and bede enjoyed their hoons
