I will most likely start working on it again soon, Its a bit of a stress reliever.
Thanks for the poke ;)
 
I'm a tellin ya man, that 80's gonna make ya soft if you don't watch out!

;p

Brian, I'll be happy to help in the nudge department. Otherwise, that 40 is gonna slip from the rumour category into the myth category.:frown: Maybe give yourself a deadline to work towards.

CM09?

:idea:

My mind is always straying from the 40...

Ive been pining over a 100 series lately. :(

EDIT!

Gotta love my kid with a mouth full of marshmallows

I think if the 40 pulls out of the driveway(under it's own power) you would not be able to keep the smile off your face. Not sure if it would be the same smile if you pulled a 100 out of the driveway?

Agreed, Clay :cheers:
 
Little update...

In the last 2 days, I been able to get a few items back in place.
Ive bolted down the cage, Put the Master Cylinder back in as well as the Clutch Cylinder, All the plumbing is done, Moved the shock mounts from the front to the rear of the axle so the angle and binding are fixed, put on the shifter boot, Installed the windshield, I had to drill out 2 screws :rolleyes: Bled the brakes and man were they stubborn, Im sure there were a few other things I cant remember today.
Im hoping to have the Clutch Slave Cylinder finished up tonight with a new mount, Maybe re-bleed the brakes, Get a few more parts put together entirely.

:clap: :clap: :clap: for me :cheers:
 
Things are coming together a little here.

Fixing the shock mount was a lot easier than I thought, Angles are looking much better.

I mounted a rear heater from an 80 series under the driver seat, I need to figure out a good way to direct the air.

Ive been having a little trouble with Brake Master, It wont hold pressure, I have a new hose and Slave on it, But I may need to rebuild the Master.
 
I enjoyed reading thread sorry that you stalled the build out for awhile but glad to hear you climbed back in the saddle. Cannt wait to see it finished
