Yesterday morning I took several parts for polishing and zinc plating to my chromer. This morning I got a call to say they were ready! What service, less than 24 hours turnaround.
So, after collecting them (mainly for the 750 restoration) I started work on some instruments.
The triple is using unrestored instruments (as instructed) but I found a replacement instrument bracket (as the old one broke when I was tightening up a screw) and had it repainted.
Newly repainted bracket, new instrument band, rechromed backs

I then rebuilt the instrument console for the 750.
Professionally restored instruments, new wiring sub-looms (from Japan), new instrument bracket from Canada), correct Lucas switchgear (from Germany) and new ignition switch (from Canada, but key from Germany)

I had a rummage in my storage bin for carburettor parts and found a good replacement for the cracked carb body on #3 cylinder on the Jota rebuild. I'll replace the carb body and all the internals tomorrow.
