When mine was together you could open it with a paper clip too. Same locks will be going in to the new doors! :eek: I think they are all the same.

How long has your stood during the rebuild? Mine will be 18 months by the time I hopefully get it on the road and at the same stage as you. With it standing that long I'm expecting seals etc to go. I'm a bit concerned about the turbo too - hopefully just me being paranoid.
 
Gear box and axles(refurbed front one and rear was refurbed 5 years ago pre mothball) ,steering and bodywork.5 years .

Engine and loom both used so no idea. Engine pulls well....does in excess of 70 when asked.

Lights, suspension, engine seals, wheels , brakes ( rebuilt. Originals) windscreen , fuel tank and bushes all new.

So the bits that leak aint surprising me.
