Gear box with axels cleaning


Looking at what is required to take apart the gearbox and thefact that it was working fine before I took it out of the car, I decided to only clean it up, remove the rust and paint it.Almost there. Had some bags on the axels as they tend to leak oil when tilted down.

I will replace the 2 cv boot joints (seen here) and the hub seals.

Tinware painting

Got some heat resistant paint today.

And more wire brushes!
These have got arbours that screw together got the brush to fit in the drill. I have now 7 of these kits. I still have the body of the car to do, so I am sure they will be used.
The tinware all painted with two coats. I think there will be enough for 3. I won't bother with the exhaust as I'm not sure if its ok or not. I haven't started it in over 2 years!A close up of the fan. Looking a lot better now.
