Frank, If you have sufficient clearance between PUMP pulley and the WP housing, rather than make/fit a shim or spacer to the crank pulley, remove the water pump and its back cover plate, and using a press push the WP pulley flange on to the shaft by the reqd amount. ------- NB. When doing this use a short piece of round steel stock in the impellor bore so that you are supporting/pressing directly on the shaft of the WP bearing- not the impellor or housing.----- There is usually enough room between flange & front of bearing to allow this, also be aware that some WP shafts have a reduced dia immediately in front of the flange that acts as a spigot for the WP pulley, if this is the case you may need to make allowance for this by counter boring the pulley slightly also.

Back again to work on the car after the holliday's
We went to italy and i also went to miln where i visited paolo it was nice talking to him and to see how passioned he is about the 40 as one madman to another madman.
Anyway I started again on the panneling and the front is almost finished.

Finished the frontpaneling, still needs final attaching
started on the panneling of the doorcorners and the base for the fuelcap when i noticed after finishing the right corner that the body was'nt mounted correctly on the chassis so i decided to first putt the suspension on the front and allign the wheels correctly and then the rear wheels
If the wheels are ok then i will allign the body and fix the hingepoints again (but then on the right spot)
After that i'll remake the doorcorner
