So, after loading up the exhaust manifold bolts up with WD40 for a couple of days, and managed to crack them all off apart from one! The remaining one you can only reach with a 12mm spanner, and out of my set, that is the one I have lost
On a good note, I managed to get the block prep'd and painted today
Prep'd and Kurust'd
Etch Primed
I then primed it but my phone had died.
Painted
Demasked
Tomorrow, if the weather is good, I hope to get the passenger side chassis leg and the gearbox cleaned up. Maybe even make a start on cleaning all the hoses and replacing the clips with stainless Jubilee Clips ready to be re attached
