Now that I tidied my new garage and found all the spitfire parts, for the past 2 months I have been working on the car when I had a bit of time. Slow progress as I had a major work (5 full days) on an other car replacing the V8 engine this summer (quite a story...) and I always have to do a few things to my 1985 daily driver.
Basically the goal is to be able to start the engine and drive round the block asap.
It will probably not be perfect but now I feel it is more important to get it going and I will continue slowly but at least have a fun car to take out.
Completely cleaned and painted the water pump and fan and installed the radiator
Then set the valve gaps to the correct values
The engine bay is starting to look like it should. Exciting, more photos soon !
