So what you need is B&Q into the decorative wood section find some of the small square wood that’s fits in the lower glass channel. Put a small nail into it so you can remove to open window.

But both windows slide... So that would only secure the one window

It really is looking great. Lovely work. Can't wait to see it finished.

Marmaduke · Jun 2, 2020

Well I've ordered some silver headlights

And as I've heard nothing back from autosparks I've just put an order in for colour coded braided cables and I'll make my own wiring loom

Yep... you need 2. Trouble is1 is outside. Don’t put a nail o to lift it out.

I’m still trying to find what them catches also fit on.
Have you tried ringing rimmer brothers (Birmingham) they specialise in all makes of British cars.
Looked on the S1 they have Perspex re fitted with later square £10 catches

New headlights arrived today

Box full of lovely wiring turned up anorl...

Marmaduke · Jun 6, 2020

Out with the old...

And in with the new...

I'm running trailer cable from the bulkhead to the back corner then side to side

And some missing pieces turned up anorl

I can finally rev the engine

but I'm sick of getting soaked

Indicators, side lights and tail lights all work. Alternator charges the battery anorl. Off to halfords tomorrow for some more crimp connectors then I can start on the clutch and brakes

Hoping for it's first voyage on tarmac on over 20 years next week

Bled the brakes and clutch today and it's payed me back by popping a core plug

Marmaduke · Jun 16, 2020

She's moved today under her own steam for the first time possibly this century

LincolnSteve · Jun 16, 2020

Well done! That's a huge milestone.

Aye, tis a shame that one of the core plugs has popped so I can't drive it to far

Looks mint, great work.

Here’s some ideas for the truck cab. 2 different ways of stopping glass/Perspex opening.
Both items from S1 107

Marmaduke · Jun 25, 2020

Well it's back in pieces

Played it safe and swapped the water pump

And the amount of rusty crap that came out with the aid of the hose pipe was shocking...

But today (Wednesday) we've been to the park

And cor blimey are drum brakes ****

I'm used to 2020 Toyota Aygo brakes though

LincolnSteve · Jun 25, 2020

Very jealous! Well done!
