Hunter has MOT!

Not quite finished but almost, still need to get a new stainless steel exhaust and sort some minor niggles.

This one does not have overdrive, although my other one does.

this is looking really good. Thanks for the updates.
The brown cowled dash looks the part - cannot be too many left in that colour. Has this one got overdrive? - was looking for the relay on the RHS inner wing panel, but not sure if later cars have it on top of the steering column (there are a couple of holes there of the exact pitch which I bolted my own to when I did a conversion on my Hunter Super).
Must be exciting seeing this coming together.

I've neglected this thread for a while but work has been ongoing.

Anyway, this is where we are at the moment. Just waiting for the rear bumper to come back from the chroming place, some interior odd and ends plus a new stainless steel exhaust and it should be ready for the road.

Oh yes very nice

I think you'll have something very special when finished and the envy of many (me included)!

Yes that is the same as the broken one I replaced recently. Are these available somewhere? The one I fitted is different.

Thanks Glen

Hopefully the worst is over now, it will be nice to see it being put back together.
