Haven't done alot on the square of late as i've been fitting a new kitchen, it has been running but the engine flooded with fuel due to the carb needle valves sticking, i think that's all sorted now. Whilst removing the battery i noticed a bit of chicken wire inside the heater channel so i removed the rear wing to investigate and found some real tasty filler/roofers repair tape and chicken wire repair work! Nice!

Found a similar mess behind the other rear wing but all welding is done now,well for this year anyway. Just finishing off jobs left now and hopefully mot next week. It's running like a bag o sh*te at the mo too so i'll have to spend a bit more time setting up the carbs.

Your Square is looking good ..none of them are perfect... i think i'm mad buying into a 1963 that's seen better time's ...but it has something that's drawing me in :roll:
