The rebuild of Jemima Puddleduck

[jimmyjamjar]

Did a bit more on the sound proofing with high density foam on the firewall, still got to be glued in but will leave that till harness is fitted. I also remounted the pedals, what a mission! I eventually cut a piece of dowel to hold the pedals onto the return spring and then when I got them lined up in the bracket  I used a screwdriver to pushed the dowel out and inserted the shaft. fitted the hand  rake and adjusted the cables.

I took a look under the car and found that the battery cable was damaged. At some stage it was patched with rubber tubing tied with wire and wrapped with insulation tape , not good, so I will put in my spare which is like new. I also noticed that the fuel pipe only goes from the rear to about level with the gear lever position, surely this is not right? that leaves about more than a meter to the fuel pump so my question is can I just replace it with new rubber fuel hose, the existing is real dodgy and looks like it is currently a piece of gas hose, brittle as hell ? or is it best to get a new pipe all the way from the floor under the tank to the front sub frame ?

I know I sound like a stuck record but the wiring harness still stumps me  I have removed the loom that goes to the boot and on checking the colours they don't match up with any of the diagrams in the BOL or the one Gweir posted.
