I am starting work on restoring a special, and have a problem on which I could do with some advice. It's ruby chassis based.
The body has been made very narrow at the front, and the dynamo and distributor sticks out in the fresh air beyond the bonnet!
Is there a way of moving that in? Maybe using a modern dynamo, or even doing away with the dynamo and charging circuit, and relying on triple charging the battery in the garage?
Anyone who has dealt with this issue?
There's also incidentally no front cone, starting handle, or fan- I'm assuming that the original builder was contemplating using an electric fan.
Thanks
