Bonnet fitting

Sun 28th 2010 - Work time = 6hrs ... Build Time To Date = 134hrs
Yes ...6 hour to fit the bonnet!  Well nearer 5 actually because I fitted the bottom hose as well.


The bonnet fitting took so long because I needed to grind aways some of the welds on the chassis so that it would sit down properly.  I also needed to file a little off the bonnet. 
The fitting of the hinge was tricky too ... I ended up rivetting the hinge to the bonnet and used rivnuts to secure to the chassis rail.
I hope all the other bodywork fitting doesn't take this long.
