Kermits V8 conversion

Well we made some good progress on a chocolate cake and some doughnuts :p
Kermit got his exhaust pipes finished off, drivers seat installed, prop trued up better and seat belt bar for the kids installed [^]
we discovered the thread in a Rover clutch slave cylinder is different to a Commer one [xx(]
Getting close now, the plan is to have him back on his wheels within 2 weeks [8D]

Rear seat belts for the kids all sorted, just waiting for the paint to dry then i can install them and take a pic :)

We now have a working clutch, fuel system, engine breather pipes, coils mounted and heater almost plumbed :p
The radiator would have been in too, if the crank sensor had not broken when i went to connect the wire [V]
Getting dangerously close now, a load of wring, air filters, engine lid, h/brake cable, bleed brakes, tweek the gear lever a bit, cage padding and that,s about it [^]:p[8D]

GOD DAMN IM MISSING MY VAN. BUT IT'S GOING TO BE WORTH IT
 
Heater now working, new crank sensor fitted, water pump whirring and
engine turning over on the key :p
Need to have a re-think on the coils, as the leads won,t reach [xx(]
