Finally got the thing off, had to grind it off and force it with a home made puller in the end.

Put a filter here to stop any rust from the tank getting in to the carb.
Also fixed the nearside door mirror and have got the engine ready to remove the next crank bolt etc so I can put this oil pump on.
Also got the exhaust ready to be put on from existing parts.
As usual with this car 2 steps forward and one back as the brakes stopped working and the pedal went straight to the floor.Last edited by Jeff Turbo; 25th November 2013, 13:10.1958 Ford Consul Convertible. I love this car

Great work so far I did not relise you had done so much on her.
In the photo the filiter is on the return feed to the tank so will not stop any rust going to the carb.
