Whilst waiting for the petrol pump, filter and braided pipe to arrive, I have been doing some nice jobs
First was to make a shelf for the boot to carry a delightful, old, leather suitcase which Juliet's father took to war ! It has a label "Captain TD ......" on the inside and he was demobbed in '47 so it is exactly the right period.
Then cleaning up the brass wheel nuts and re-marking the LH threaded ones. As you know LH threaded nuts have a notch on each of the corners of the nut but over time these have been lost by over-enthusiastic tyre-centres undoing them the wrong way. I used a small disk on the dremel to recut them. Lancia stamped the wheelstuds "s" and "d" as a reminder , but it was not always heeded (sorry, poor photo)
Finally, putting together a toolkit from various Lancia epochs (and a bit of Renault). The wheelbrace I think is Aprilia or Aurelia, the 17/19 spanner is from a Fulvia, as is the wheel nut tool. The 2 allan key spanners are 60's Lancia, maybe earlier. The toolbox is Fulvia but fits perfectly in the frame inside the boot. Finally the jack is late 60's Renault 4 but the Aprilia starting handle fits perfectly.
The grease gun is possibly Lancia.
I have a toolkit list for a 1st series Aprilia but not a second so if anyone can help - either with offers of tools or a list of what to look for I would be grateful.
I also took the carb to bits and re-assembled it but I will post that later.
ps both R4's passed their CT's (MOT) so it was a good day !
