Slowly sorting out the fuel filler, got that in but have a small problem with the vent. Can't bend the tubing without it kinking.
So will make a 180 degree turn out of household copper pipe and 90 degree bends, and then connect my rubber tube to that.
Will put up some pics when done

Then one of my mates popped over, and said "there is a line showing across it where it kicks up at the rear."
Having friends is SO overrated  >:(

Cheers

Hi guys,
Engine cover.....again.
Spent another day on it, got it to the best I can, thought I would try the Perspex in.....


We have been made aware that the rear window is abit too big, thats the problem with using a template done by the previous extreme. We've now had this changed. As for yours Alex just trim it down equal on both sides for a better fit. It should still be slightly bigger to help it keep a curve when fitted. I know it sounds crude but we would recommend a belt sander to sand the edges down to the desired size. Then just finished off with some finer grit and wet and dry paper.
