AL110 restoration, the early stages

We love follow-up pics and these are great.
They also clearly show the double winding on the coil (pull-in and hold-in), and the contact which can be used to short out the ballast resistor while cranking.

Been flat out the last month or so with work so the project has slowed
The brakes are back together, the brake lines in place and now the motor is getting mounted up.
I have the bell housing and gearbox and clutch there ready for next sat to start bolting it up.
I am after a hot box gasket is any one has any ideas or what material i can make one out of.

I'm pretty sure you can still buy sheets of manifold gasket (looks like lino tile) and cut it as you wish.
If required, I could look up the part number for the IH part.

Thanks for the tip,
I appreciate all suggestions, we found some material at the auto shop.
I have been making the fuel tank brackets this evening, just have to source some nuts and do the welding and they are done.
hope to post some pics on the week end

Jim

The last few weeks have been real busy work wise
but we did manage to get the engine sitting up in there





Now the task of getting all the bolt ons fitted up
Looking forward to bolting up the starter too after all the help with that
Cheers
Jim

Hot box, is this the manifold gasket?
If it is, just go to your local Iveco dealer and buy one.
I bought a manifold gasket off them for a Silver Diamond (220) about 2 or 3 years ago.
A bit of googling, you'll probably get one from America pretty cheap too.

Travellall parts in America have the gaskets.
I've bought a bit of stuff off them.
Freight is reasonable and takes about 2 weeks to get here.
