There’s various pictures in this thread but I didn’t do a separate thread for it. In hindsight I could have. i have loads of photos myself if there’s something you need to see.

Thanks Congo, I will look at your build thread. I have just had a quick look and it looks like a nice job you are doing - well done.
Dropped the under tray so I could get at the exhaust down pipe nuts, christ I wish I hadn’t!
Years of oil and crud caked on everything, spent ages scraping it off into a pile.
Then got most of the exhaust off, downpipe studs were a comparative doddle - then realised I needed to drop the Anti Roll Bar to get the old pipe out.
That’s tomorrow morning then - too knackered
and a beery sunset beckoned

finalised the coolant system 
(fitted last 2 jubilee clips on top hose)
swore @ it again ('86 Ninety 2.5nad converted to Defender200tdi)
still not made the lower / turbo to intercooler metal pipe (how hard is a 18" length of 2" pipe & 2 jubilee clips) or started making the airfilter case brackets (Disco 200tdi filter housing into Ninety with Defender200tdi turbo setup)
swore @ it again
thought of a few more little / time-consuming jobs

Have a beer & a sit down before polishing.Washed it. But now I’ve got the need to polish it too.
Still waiting on a local Indy to get back to me about the welding on the front chassis legs…
You don’t want to break out in a sweat
I don’t need telling twice! But I don’t know what would upset Mrs K more, me opening a beer during the day or spending time polishing the Landy!
