Cheers all, really loving this stage fitting all the bits n pieces! Very hard to walk past the shed without losing an hour tinkering on something…spent way too long trying to install the clutch rubber stop without success… :roll:

Looking good, not long now. The rubber boot on the accelerator goes the other way, should point to under the bus.

What’s that indicator arm? Does it have extra functions or something? I’ve never see one before.

Looks like this one for the creative steering
