Rebuilding the gearbox and other parts. The brakes are Girling like the 206. They have a separate parking brake unlike the 246 ATE brake. The gearbox was coated with glyptal and baked. With the porous castings they are coated inside.
The Dinoplex is gutted and will be replaced with a permatune electronic ignition and a period correct looking coil. I’ll keep the emergency switch for originality. The case will get vapor blasted. This was I guess state of the art 50 years ago!
My L model is completely stripped of all parts and I delivered it to the media blaster today. Other parts went to Black Oxide, Cad Plating, Vapor Blasting, Machining etc etc. The body was in good shape with a few usual rust spots. Metal work will be taken care of after media blast.
Rebuilding Weber DCNF 40 carbs. I have’t even finished taking the car apart, but seeing the motor was out i though I would get something looking and working like new again.
