Summer nothing, had me a blasttt?

Me no likey summer, hot sweat grrrr.

Nothing done on the cars at all.

Did get some air tools for christmas,

  • Air Sand Blast Gun – Spot
  • 3/8″ Ratchet Wrench
  • 150mm Air Hammer
  • 1/4″ Die Grinder
  • 3/8″ Reversible Air Drill
  • 100mm Angle Grinder
  • 1/2″ Impact Wrench
  • 20m Auto Loaded Air Hose Reel

Also ordered a Engine Crane on christmas day – because of decent price and free delivery, on a 95Kg item!

Today I went out and bought a Sidchrome 8 Drawer Tool Chest for all my stuff, will hopefully get a roller cabinet for my birthday in August.

Mounties

Not much happening lately, summer arriving soon which sucks arse.

New Suzuki Sport mounts arrived today via Streeter, slightly harder than stock I believe.

Huzzah

We have fuel.
Drove it to Mikes, and broke down 100metres or so from his house. He towed me to the shed and I got to work.

4 Hours later it was back together. The positive wire on the pump cradle had come loose on the screw terminal, did it up and wall-ah.

Dribs n Drabs

RSR550

Picked up the new fuel filter (Z518),

RSR660

Windscreen is finally out, worse rust than I though – but not holey.
Picked up the bits from the powdercoaters, cost was a smidge more than I hoped but still awesome.

Not pictured, lower front crossmember.
Blaaack silicon vacuum hose arrived from eBay, surprisingly quick from HK.
Mounts ordered.

No fixin yet

Haven’t really started fixing this car as yet.
Ordered a new fuel filter (Z518),
Found the system from the other white car – tank, pump, filter and lines;
Plan now is to clean out / check these lines and tank and install into RSR550, with the new filter and soft lines.

Am not sure about the fuel pump yet, the above pump isn’t the stock one, I’m not sure of the LPH needed for a replacement. The one currently in RSR550 has allegedly been changed but I don’t know what too — and the tank needs to be dropped to check, and has 27L of fuel in it.
