So the original fuel tank was in pretty good shape and so I set about stripping it for a respray.
Before I repaint the exterior I treated it with the 3 recommended POR15 products:
Cleaner Degreaser
Metal Prep
Fuel Tank Sealer
The sealer is now being left to cure for the recommended time.
Next was the front brake lines. I dug out my old faithful tools..
In the pic below you see the pipe fitted to the master cylinder, that has possible problems, dangerous ones as I believe the bonnet will put pressure on it. To solve this I'm ordering a custom
braided one from HEL with a right angle top fitment.
All looking pretty tidy
