Most of us did the 2 day expedition First Aid course while Oli toiled away on the car.
We are now trained up for Snake Bites, Broken Limbs, Choking on Sheeps Eyes and even Gobi Desert Sunburn and Heat stroke.
Oli is sorting the final bits of body work and finally refitting various panels. Its really looking good!
Jeremy worked on EB4 (The BIG Austin) on Monday to prepare it for Wiscombe next weekend. It seems to only want to run at high speed and is very fluffy at low speeds.
I spent yesterday machining 8 magneto high tension lead adaptors for the original mag and early this morning finally finished soldering them to the HT leads. Also finished fitting a modern remote type oil filter which must be a sensible precaution.
Oli decided to fit the original exhaust manifolds at least for the Wiscombe event and although horrid on the bench they don't look too bad on the car.
We have an organisation who are making positive noises about getting us the permission to go through China.
Getting home early...........Maybe a test run tonight!
