A good bit of progress since the last update. Master cylinder back in place and pipes connected. Wiring clipped back into position. Also lifted the engine off of the stand onto the bench ready to fit the clutch and gearbox. Then its engine back in maybe at the weekend. Can't wait.

The second batch of parts arrived back from the platers - very pleased with those. Each part carefully wrapped in tissue - it was like Christmas come early !
Finished cleaning and painting the last inner wheel-arch (osr) and fitted a new fuel filler pipe. This wheel-arch proved the most difficult and took the longest. Rads back in now too.
Cleaned up the Weber carb. and while looking through an old workshop manual found the old paperwork for it from when it was fitted in 1990. Also got a couple of new gaskets.
A few pics.
