It will be quite a while before it gets done anyway.
I bought a new (150 year old) house which needs ‘a bit’ of work.....
Once the house is done I can build the new garage THEN carry on with the Q 
rebuild !!

Be careful mixing stainless steel and aluminium.  You might quickly find you 
have less aluminium than when you started!  Use some plastic/rubber washers to 
isolate the 2 if possible.

  The bloke who built mine had made some out of aluminium (badly) and had used 
steel self tappers to hold it on.
  The screws had rusted solid and had to be drilled out.
  I intend to made some better ones out of aluminium and use stainless rivnuts.

  My coupe had S/S fasteners and it was a non-event to take the nose cone off.  
(Sorry to those who have struggled!)  It was a more recent refit with the 
redesigned front lights shape. If you do not have liners I would have thought 
the lights and wiring would have got a pounding and would need to be very 
waterproof.   

  My covers are plastic, but my son’s car has aluminium.

    I think they are partly to stop mud etc building up in the back of the nose 
cone.
    And also they make more of a shield to the void between the inner and outer 
wings that supplys air to the heater system.
    I imagine that without them that it might be possible for water from a big 
puddle to splash up there and enter the car.

    Hi Derek et al


    My saloon does not have and never has had such covers fitted and I've not 
found any downside to that. 


    Just for interest, the radiator originally was in the engine bay but during 
a full rebuild a few years ago, I moved it in front of the bulkhead to 
accommodate a decent tubular exhaust manifold.

    As you've probably discovered, removing the nose cone can be a pig if 
stainless fasteners were not used to mount it, but all are reachable, just, 
with a cutting disc on an angle grinder.


    Best regards
    Bill

    Dear All,


    Took off the nose cone today.  The inner wheel arch covers that fill the 
back of the nose cone within the wheel arch are pop riveted on.  I did wonder 
if there is a better way of doing it?  The rivets are quite practical and easy 
enough to reset, so maybe not.  But I note that production vehicles now use a 
plastic clip system for the same job.  Rivnuts and dome head bolts seem to be 
the deluxe version.  But maybe they would not last?  


    What have you done?  What is the best?  


    Cheers


    Derek
