Thanks
It`s not a County, just had flashes fitted (90)
The roof has safari rooflights fitted along with a sunroof, so it has to go.
The rear has had seating but the entire interior is to be redone.
Not 100% what direction I`ll go. My last one was MOD green with bench seats, windows and a solid roof.
Want it plain and simple I think. Black front seating and black benches. Solid hardtop and keep the side windows.

I like it. A lot. If it was mine I would keep it looking as it is and not try and get it too "show room". But fit a decent set of wheels (those are effing awful) and get it mechanically and electrically sorted.

Ripped out the door cards today, and the loft insulation behind them ! ffs.
Doors are rotten, driver side unsavable, passenger side maybe save the lower.
Tailgate savable.
More holes drilled in the bloody thing than anything. Everything fitted using woodscrews ! including the roof mounted speakers, screwed from the outside ! jeez.
I`m not doing the whole "patina" thing. It`s being rebuilt and repainted.,from the axles up.

Hoovered it out today to get a better view of the corrosion issues. There are plenty ! lol.
Couldn`t turn it over with the cranking handle either so was panicking.
Removed the fan belt, sprayed ultra crack /WD40 mix down the bores and hey presto, seized water pump ! phew !.
Might be able to save one or both door lowers.
I take it all the new doors I see are skinned in steel rather than Birmabright ?
