I have been a little quiet here but busy with the car readying for Dakar, we are prepping for a new roll cage to give more room and sorting out some poor electrical wiring used for accessories like internal lights but also the intercooler pump and extra gauges/compressor.
My thanks to @cruisermatt for advice on brake Mc’s and booster parts and compatibility/adaptors and steering boxes which was new to me.
I have managed to locate an excellent original alternator in Italy as a spare and also an original clutch booster good enough to be restored and to find some diffs/axles to strengthen and rebuild with upgraded shafts and cv’s as spares.
If I can do the brake m/c/booster and steering it should make a good and strong car better and stronger and hopefully we can maintain the Dakar reliability record of this car.
Latest in car before and after pics below.
Next photo’s should be with the new cage in.
