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 !!

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

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.

(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.

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.

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. http://quantumforum.proboards.com/thread/522/quantum-saloon-full-rebuild?page=6 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.

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?
