Tiny little (boring) update for everyone. Due to the poor weather up here, I have been unable to build up my strengthened gazebo and due to me wanting to do the job properly, restoring and spraying the engine bay has ground to a halt for now.
I am clearing out space in the garage so I can paint and fit the gearbox to the replacement engine.
For now though, I had a bash at cleaning up the front calipers. I Dipped them in some Deox C solution after a wire wheel and mild chisel, dipped them back in the Deox C over night then wire brushed again.
The results:

Not entirely satisfied with the results so will repeat the above process again before cleaning and painting. I might try getting the rear calipers shot blasted first. Apologies for the poor photo quality buy you get the idea!

Is it just me or since the forum update, can I only upload one image at a time per post?
