When I first started the speedster project I decided to go with a modified Brake System, which included a dual master cylinder, Combination Valve Kit also with a 10Lb( Rear Drums) and a 2Lb (Front Disc) Residual Valve, this setup for the last few weeks has given Armand and I endless headaches to a point I was thinking to scrap the whole Idea, fortunately Armand did sort it out and the brakes are working great.
Getting closer to completion is time consuming exercise which requires all the finer detailing , to have the speedster mobile the rear bumper guards with exhaust hole needed to be fitted which required the body to be cut to clear the exhaust trumpets, next it also required the steel bumper to be cut and reinforced to keep it rigid. Again no surprise Armand’s skills did an outstanding job.

The next item fitted was the Petcock Valve and all the fuel line connected.
Under dash E-brake fitted
The speedster went for its first trial run sadly only for a few meters and suffered fuel starvation the electric fuel pump had a wiring fault and the clutch cable needs to be adjusted. Besides the few gremlins in no time these issues will be sorted out.
