I bought this stuff, it makes the dash all shiny, I mean its like I painted it with gloss paint, seats too, they squeak when I sit on them, well impressed, I will try it on the body work tomorrow!
 
Headlining and trim now out, water leak tracing and derusting where it’s been hidden for years!

One side of the rear seat belt hardware finally out - previous owner gave up having used an angle grinder and cut slots in the seat box in places - vandal, but they were well rusted in. Perseverance, PlusGas, swearing….done.

As requested squire!

https://www.tayna.co.uk/truck-batteries/enduroline/664/

Used this spec/brand in my last Two Landies - a 200tdi and a Td5, can’t fault them and fit with space to spare…

Battery arrived & fitted. Cranks straight up so all good.
Now the battery I have removed will go onto the S1

now to fit the other battery that arrived to the Motobike.
Also On a plus side the delivery driver put these batteries into my shed instead of leaving on the door step
 
Finished clearing out/removing the rear seat hardware, every bolt was a rusty knacker. Don’t think I’ll refit the seats….

Tried to replace the busted aerial, it’s all hidden behind the dash - for another time.

While rummaging behind the instrument binnacle, found the ABS ECU, full of surprises this one!
 
New alternator is on and finally the battrey light is off! Also fully insulated the rear and fitted some side boards and cut out a temp bed.
Next is board the roof and build some storage, wood has got very expensive !
