Behind Schedule - Update !!

OK..  I have not done any work on the Sabre since early November !!  

Well frustrated... as my employment is getting seriously in the way of this.. more meaningful work.

Anyhow...  today I spent a few hours in the Drivers / Engine bay area.  The Generator was removed along with the Brake & Steering master cylinders and associated brake pipes. 

The paintwork, in this area, is in really excellent condition and is cleaning up extremely well.. degreaser and a bit of "elbow grease" is all that will probably be needed...  with maybe just a bit of paintwork.  This is a great relief...as with the Striker restoration, all the interior had to be stripped back to bare aluminium and repainted.

So here are a few photos of todays work...


Still some de-greasing to do... but looking good

The next job is to remove the brake calipers and check / refurbish as required.




Still some adhesive, from the vinyl covering, to remove. I will probably not replace this as the white paintwork looks good 

Brake master cylinder removed for refurb

Steering Master Cylinders removed for refurb

Generator...  looks worse than it is...  I think a good clean up will be all that is required.
