Ok photos, got this the other day.
On collection from Witham
In my garage lol
Recon lump from 2006, various new parts, brake master cylinder, fuel pump, bonnet. Runs well.
Dash (and tax disk!) is a bit ratty - replacement is in the post as we speak
Chassis and x-member is nice
couple of areas of damage, first under the front offside HL
and second rear quarter
I shan't be doing anything about the damaged areas other than making sure they arent water traps for corrosion.
and does anyone know how to stop these bits flapping out when i drive?
So what do you think?
I am not intending to 'restore' it rather just tidy it up and enjoy it.
Jobs to do this year are:
1. fluid/filters and cambelt
2. proper good wash, and chassis protection
3. paint the rear tub and interior (outside is actually ok)
4. more comfortable seats
5. new windscreen rubber!
6. Replace the almost worn through top rad hose.
7. replace front diff pinion oil seal
8. check breathers are clear
Most of that will be done in the next week, but the pain and chassis stuff can wait till the summer.
Cambelt, rad hose and coolant change tomorrow, oils and filters the day after, today i greased all the UJ's and props and fitted new wiper blades and tax disc holder, then domestic duties called!
