Yesterday I removed the two chassis front spring bushes. Today I gave the chassis its final 2 coats of Tractol Massey Ferguson red paint.
 
fixed tail gate , fixed rev counter, planning to do service , stereo, treat leather, add spots from previous landy just need to find a good priced black a bar , dont want chrome which is all i can find ! :(
 
Checked all fluids yesterday morning ... luckily ... because I ended up doing over 300 miles getting someone to their family after their grandmother suddenly passed away ... Disco behaved faultlessly :)
 
Well over weekend , had door sorted so it closes better( need new lock but that can wait )
New door seal on middle door , so kids can get out on pavement instead of into road. Refitted cb after it fell off and replaced spare wheel cover.
Sorted out my tools, worked out what they all did, opened my new pack of screwdrivers and put them all in a box in the beast , along with the Haynes manual. Just got to ger a set of jumo leads and I'm done, mine have gone walkabout.

That you for my assistant for the day who provided labour and eye candy opportunities :D

Heh, sat and watched as a teacher parked next to it, got out, brushed up against the Disco and got rather dusty and dirty .. I didn't laugh .. well, not in view of her!

She got back in and picked another parking space .. :mooning:

fitted new terrafirma steering damper and new cb aerial mount and lead then sat in the sun lol
Perfect weather for working on a Landie :cool: .. I'm interested to hear a bit more about the "terrafirma steering damper", my discoII steering damper has a bit of play in it and needs replacing, how does the "terrafirma" one compare? much improvement (I wont be doing any heavy off roading, -just though if it needs replacing, might as well look at upgrading!) ?
