Oil Cooler; Done.

So another several weeks' work for what seems like little reward! After some thought we decided the oil cooler would sit well in the vast space behind the rad and would also be convenient for the oil ways to the engine. Using a bit of the chassis we cut off, and some 3mm steel sheet, I fashioned a support bar which bolts to the chassis via rivnuts. A coat of hammerite, and I'm quite pleased with the results.
