Splendid work. Shows it is all worth the hassle in the end. Enjoy it.

Wrong fan!

Looking good!

Does it keep running if you keep the key turned to the starter position? If it does, then it will be your ballast resistor.

Don't necessarily trust the timing markings. It has been known for the pulley to slip around due to the rubber damping material becoming unbonded.

My two daughters sat either side with our friend and 2500S estate owner was in the centre having his face whipped with long hair! I think in all we did an enjoyable and thankfully uneventful 1000 miles.

That's mine! We did a four week road trip five up. Fabulous holiday.

Under the door trim.

Try Lloyd Reed, South Wales Triumphs or Roger Carnell in Scotland, or Andy Harrison in Devon.

Are you still using points and condensor? If you have electronic ignition, most render the tacho inoperative. The only one I think does work is the Aldon Ignitor kit.
