'The Leaf' a ratty roadster, a prewar car build, part fourteen

welcome to part fourteen of 'the leaf' a prewar car build
I want to build a 1930's super reliable daily driver, I have a 1936 Austin 12 rolling frame , a 1927 to 1933 Lea Francis roadster dicky body and radiator and for power a 1800 cc Isuzu petrol engine with a 5 speed gearbox..hopefully this will be a very straight forward build and with luck shouldn't take too long, I will be documenting what this costs as we go along but needless to say I will be using INGENUITY OVER BUCKS....
Only having a short week as we are away for a few days I decided to do a video anyways ...I take the 'rat' for a spin ..then continue with the footwell and cut a door for the battery compartment, Alan and Greg pop over and we discuss sealing the fuel tank, finally an update on the next project

I never get tired of watching you make parts that are so right out of old junk that people discarded. You’re an inspirational soul. Great job 👍👍👍.

That toeboard reminds me of something my dear old dad used to say: "I've cut it three times, and it's STILL too short!"

Nice video, great to see the Austin. Loving Jim's music. About those feelings about the rain, any chance you could have a feeling about me winning the euromillions, I'll sort you out if I do 😉😉👍👍

Pretty cool to think you put wheels on your imagination and wind up taking it down the road. Music jives well with the video. Hope the sunshine follow you and the Mrs on holiday!
