'42 tilt

Hi guys, here's a few photos of todays effort. The tilt assembly is over the point of balance, the primary function of the gas struts is to limit the 'up' position..... there's no chance of a puff of wind blowing the lot down on my head. Made a couple of wind defectors, they will have rubber bolted to them and seal against the radiator frame.... so when going down the road air can't go around the radiator and is forced through it.
Cheers, Steve.
