Nosecone mismatch

Engine and gearbox has been removed, and the car is ready to accept the IRS gearbox....as soon as I find a bigger hammer, so I can get the bus nosecone to fit the IRS gearbox!!! ;-)














It turns out that the pre ´59 splitbusses got a diffent front gearbox mount, so a repro nosecose from a post ´59 bus has been ordered. Also, an adapter is needed, to make the bus accept the earlier nosecone. Fortunately, CSP got the adapter, and it should arrive at my place in a couple of days, along with type 1 (IRS) rear brakes (5x205) and other bits´n parts.
