Finally felt that my shoulders were up to a bit of excercise on the car. So I've been doing some odds and ends. The battery cable has been re-routed and will now reach the starter motor. Refitted the clutch slave cylinder, refitted the distributor (kindly reurbished by Craig), fitted the valve cover breathers and located the heater pipes. Draining the engine oil.

Need to start getting the cooling system plumbed in next with some nice silicone pipes.
