Soft dash restoration

stutab · Feb 11, 2015

I will look, I know there was a LSE soft dash on there last week

stutab · Feb 11, 2015

Just had a quick look and nothing. Have you got a picture of one?

dunkan · Feb 11, 2015

Afraid not, it's not a biggy and at the worst i'll make one, perhaps just modify
a non soft dash one

Thanks for looking Stu, i had a search this morning but couldn't see any, i've been offered parts on facebook but as of yet had zero success in getting anything i need

dunkan · Feb 13, 2015

Sill covers, rear mudflaps, d post covers, new alternator and new headlights

Attacking the front grill tomorrow

Should look even better once we attack it with a polishing mop, we've only given it a bit
of a wipe over so it's pretty grubby really. we cleaned up the tops of the rear quarters
with some cutting paste before the windows went in as the seals overlap onto the panels

The front grill has cleaned up really nicely, just sprayed it with
some TFR and scrubbed it with a soft nylon brush then hosed it
off

Is this what you are looking for?

That looks like a pre airbag one and they're slightly different, i think there's probably
dozens of those on old Rangies.

Cheers for looking Stu

A bit of panel beating was required on the deck panel to ease out some shallow dents rather
than use filler, the lower tailgate and scuttle panel are both ready to paint now

dunkan · Feb 17, 2015

Ready for flatting later on today, both panels have come out really nicely

dunkan · Feb 19, 2015

Almost finished

Headlining and boot carpet to do next and its pretty much done

Thanks Alan, just waiting on new wiper spindle bushes which we should have tomorrow and they can go on then.

Thanks guys

A couple of jobs still to do are.

Get the 5 spoke wheels refurbished, fit the new tyres

I also have another bonnet that's only got a bit of rust on it which i will
strip and make it 100% rust free then paint it and get it fitted, i will
use the rusty original bonnet for now
