kuvia marmonista

A lot of work has been done since last progress "report". You could say that we are now in assembly phase! Most of the components are already finished and at least the restoration of all components has been started.

	Drivers place. The front floor in is new one (thank you Jukka!). Gears are working and the clutch is ok. The clutch has a new friction surface. You can see the gearbox lock down at the lowest part of gearshift. It is working with the same key as the ignition lock, of course.
	Inside view to back seat. Backrest has originally been inclinable in order to find a place for side curtains behind it.
	Rear end of the car. Nickel plated bars protect paint against big, wooden trunk. The trunk will be covered with the same leather than the seats.
	The engine has been lifted into the car. It is quite heavy...
	Engine from the other side. In front you can see one of the most complicated parts of this project: water pump. The part you see is a new one casted in Australia (thanks to Ronald Deery!) and machined in Finland. Our special thanks for all those who helped us with this part!
	Way to put oil into the engine. Oil is needed 16 liters for one filling.
	And from that small brass made plate you can see if there is enough oil in the engine. You need no dipistick when checking the oil! The starter is made by Delco. Marmon has 6 volts electrical system with positive ground, 160 amp hours battery and 16 amp generator.
	View to the exhaust and intake manifolds. Preheating for intake is needed of course. Spare tyres will be covered with leather covers.
	Spare tyre carrier on the running board, made of polished aluminum.
	Spare tyre on the running board and side of the car.
