i done the same thing when i was ran all wire to the back i used 13 core cable for all the lights
Yes, I didn’t want the expense of buying a rear loom either as they are so simple anyway. Trailer wiring works just as goodi done the same thing when i was ran all wire to the back i used 13 core cable for all the lights
I found an air riveter, pre painting the parts after test fitting with cleco fasteners, and assembly with caravan mastic tape made slippery on one side by painting with paint thinner to make temporarily slippy; useful for this job.Got the parts through from YRM to rebuild the seat box and as usual I’m impressed by the quality. Just need to fit them now!View attachment 269232
I’ve got the majority of the bits and bobs to do the build but I’ve never tried the caravan mastic before. I will have a look into it.

Oh, and closed rivetsView attachment 269249 View attachment 269251
The tool box was a challenge to get in with the mastic sealant, and making it slippy helped as you only get one shot.
Perfect weather for doing this hope out goes well
Thanks. Looks quite similar to the dum dum sealant I used on the windscreen. I’ll have a look and see what’s availableYep, it wasn't expensive and seems to last forever. As in it doesn't go hard.

I have an almost vintage 29 year old, last of the proper Sprites, which I've rebuilt. She's called Velma as she used to get towed by Scooby called Scooby-Doo.

Is it not the imperfections that make a Landy perfect <( ̄︶ ̄)>Finished prepping the rear tub ready for paint. I don’t think it will ever be perfect, but I can’t wait to see it painted!
