| Basic small shopping trolley type car. Body condition excellent so good start as donor car. 13/Nov/12 ICE removed. Motor awaiting pickup 13/12/12 Kostov 9 arrived, have a coupling at the engineers to work with clutch centre to make complete coupling 17/12/12 one half of coupling bored so as clutch plate spline section will fit. Did not machine this part entirely but left a sort of cross. The end of coupling then machined to take this cross and machine screws hold the spline now in the coupling 20/12/12 gearbox.coupling and Kostov 9 now with engineer to fabricate a mounting plate etc. 12/4/13 still waiting on engineer to fabricate plate 18/05/13 Motor & Gearbox back from engineer - great work but super expensive -also had him also fabricate A/C pully for opposite end of drive shaft. Now bench running the motor to bed in brushes 18/5/13 Dismantled dash board to extract heater from the heater/air con housing. Installed ceramic 144v heater into body of old water heater, micro switch on case of housing to prevent heater cooking the housing without airflow, and led lit switch on dash panel as additional safety measure. Now to move onto mounting motor/gearbox in car! Have massively modified project time line out!! | |||
