Nice neat job Clee That'll be on the road for a good few years to come.

Nice one Lee - its looking great

Pretty clean under the tank as well .Servo looks in very good order .Pipes to come out in the morning then I'll clean it up a bit before popping new ones in and hope they fit

Looking good

Where you been at Jon ? Thought you might have got lost in France

Perversely the old pipes look it pretty good nick ........ Better safe than sorry tho ay

Umm...... I think if I got this far, I might be inclined to see if the two nuts holding the master cylinder to the servo would come off relatively easy as they look in good condition...... if so, I think I would spin them off and pop a bit of grease on the threads, as from reading some comments re. these nuts sheering off, when wanting to change the master cylinder, it might be worth doing as the servos appear to be in short supply, or even unavailable.

Other than my above ramblings....... cracking job Lee...... the owner should be well pleased with this Alp when it is finished.

It's not those two that are normally the issue John .It's the 4 that bolt the servo body to the front cross member that snap off or just turn .....

Thanks for enlightening me Lee. ....it was just a thought.

Are the old pipes mine to sell?

No
I would like to keep them for ref and poss drop then into JIL race project as I nicked hers for another car .In fact those pipes now reside in the last owners current car ......
But if you insist I will sweep up all the rust and shite from restoration and you can pop it on Ebay .BigM will be able to give you a good idea of what it is worth
