A full checkover of the underside after hitting some metal debris the other week, no visible damage but left some nasty witness marks along one silencer (& bust the mudflaps)
All lubed up ready for a tour of North Wales soon

Yesterday, actually, I picked up the new leather gearbox and driveshaft tunnel covers from the upholstery shop. ![[Linked Image]](http://tm-img.com/images/2023/06/09/IMG_5919.md.jpeg)

You need to peel back the rubber dust covers and wipe plenty of Ceratec around the end of the piston and squeeze a bit into the void as you ping the cover back, that should give a minimum of 10 yrs, if done each year or so

I believe that our car has some history of racing because of the engine build, suspension upgrades, fuel cell and evidence that there had been a roll bar installed at some point, but I can not figure out what sanctioning body would allow this fuel fill set-up. The nearly collapsed elbow was barely on the filler neck, the reducer was an exhaust pipe fitting, and the (no longer) flex section was a radiator, not fuel, hose. ![[Linked Image]](http://tm-img.com/images/2023/06/11/IMG_5920.md.jpeg) All better now thanks to new parts from TANKS Inc.![[Linked Image]](http://tm-img.com/images/2023/06/11/IMG_5922.md.jpeg)

It's a proper manufactured race fuel cell but presumably fitted by a previous owner ... racers seem to fall into two clans ... the 'obsessively perfect' .. and the 'That'll do' .... guess the PO was the later ... things were a whole lot looser back in the day as regards inspections 🙂
Looking good now though 👍

Nothing overly exciting here, just fitted a pair of A-pillar sidescreen/windscreen rubbers.

K Thanks! And, yes, the PO who did the work was definitely of the 'That'll do' persuasion. The song "From a Distance" comes to mind...
