Highland Sports Coupe project...
The last few odd jobs are now completed on the Coupe - wing brackets, headlamp mounts, spare wheel carrier and lots of painting and varnishing. The lovely radiator cowl is from Tony Betts and louvre panels from Andrew Goodfellow.

   

I did a final assembly of all the parts in the spring sunshine. Having spent the last 6 months tripping over it in the workshop it looks much smaller out in the car park! Nevertheless quite an exciting stage to seeing it looking like a car at last. It's sitting a bit higher than I'd expected but Ruairidh anticipates that the springs will settle once in use. If not I shall be hiding some paving slabs in the boot! 

The bonnet sides are loosely fitted and still need to be trimmed to length. Inevitably there will be some tweeking to the flitch panels etc once the fabric and bonnet mouldings are in place but I will leave all that for the metalworker who is making the wings and bonnet top. 

   

   

   

Next I will remove all the peripheral bits and label all the nuts and bolts. The door hinges and other parts are already marked to make reassembly simple later on. It will go from here to the upholsterer who is completing all the interior and exterior fabric; the seats are already done and looking very nice indeed.
