Thanks for that Angus, it's close. we did try to get some measurements from the seller but alas he has so far failed to come up with any!
Thanks Koen, as you know we have a new main needle, float and float bowl gasket on the way so hopefully that will do the trick.
A bit of a large update for you all..
With a bit of trimming the battery was made to fit in it's original postion. You can also see how the bit of WH bodywork under the dash surround is fitted.. Behind the bolts are a couple of captive nuts welded to a bracket which is welded to the chassis.
No idea what this fuel tank is from, but it's a nice size..
As you will of noticed we had to cut part of the dash surround out to make the tank fit.
Before you ask there will be some rubber going between the fuel tank and the battery terminals to stop and accidental shorting out from happening.
The gap under the front of the dash surround needed sorting..
So a patch was cut to fit the gap..

I think this plate came from a Wh 314 but I'm not 100% sure..
But it does make a nice heavy duty bracket for holding the fuel tank in place.. Tank and bracket upside down in this photo.
I thought I'd have a play with the camera affects setting for this welding photo.. If it's not blue it's black and white
We found that the welds that hold the steering column to the chassis had cracked, so as well as welding the cracks up we added a gusset to add some extra strength.. A view from the side..
From the front you can see the gusset has had a shaped plate plug welded to it..
So when the body under the dash bit slides on..
It's a perfect fit
