Is this a current thread? Date of first post is 2018? Anyway just in case here's a link to my tale of disasters. https://www.landyzone.co.uk/land-rover/steves-unexpected-series-3-rebuild.292955/ Thanks to @Dippypud for the diplomacy in saying it's been going on a while. 9 years I think which is...

They're better that the series ones. Series 3 anyway.

I couldn’t believe how intact and pliable that stuff was. I really like that puraflex stuff for a lot of things but it might be good to have a roll of something that won’t squish out of a joint for when you really want to separate things.

I've still got the old doors laying around so I thought I would try to salvage any useful bits for when I get round to sorting the back door. I don't need these doors as i've got two new ones. I really like the idea of using genuine old bits to refurb other bits. Sort of organ donation for land...

Thanks. I'll get there in the end. :D

Will do. I rounded the hole out a bit as someone in the past had hacked it about so that should also help. I'll find some of that strip and show you how it looks. 👍

That explains a lot of the problems i'm having. The end result i'm getting would do me if I could avoid runs. The next time I have a go then i'll go very much thinner and build it up. Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.

Thank you. 👍

The biggest work recently though is priming and painting the bulkhead behind the seats. Primer went on last week and colour today. I sort of enjoy spraying. Even though i've hardly done any i'm sure it's a better bet for me than roller or brush. I'm not under any illusions about the finish i'm...

Because I wanted to replace all the spot welds with rivets I thought I should trial fit all the seat runners. I could just imagine me getting a rivet head in somewhere and then not being able to fit the seat runner because of it. Another time consuming job. Some seat bits where up the house...

Back to the seat box. The toolbox under the passenger seat was really beyond help. Initially I thought I would make a new one when the time came but that was when I was young and daft. Now that i'm older and getting weary I got one from YRM. It's aluminium instead of steel so avoids the...

Update time. Drivers floor. Old one has the bit broken off where the hi/lo lever goes through and is so thin and corroded where it meets the bulkhead footwell that a new one is needed. As nothing standard fits I thought I had better make one. Bit of a shame really as it's got that nice wear on...

Don’t ask me. The more of mine that I reassemble the more I realise that I can’t get anything to just line up. 😩

That’s the sort of door alignment that the rest of us dream of.😀

So yesterday I primed the tub bulkhead, the one behind the seats. It was hot, i've got no space, the masking tape was melting off, I couldn't remember how to set up the spray gun or how much I thinned the primer last time. I was almost at the point of walking away. I carried on and once i'd done...

I seem to get myself in more of a mess with rollers. Where it's all flat i'm ok but I come to an inside corner like in the bulkhead footwells and it all goes haywire. But you're right spraying is a total faff, especially when you've got no space.

Nice one. You can't have too much space. Whenever I see people on here with big, spacious work shops i'm green with envy.

Quite right. There are certainly enough landies out there for everyone to make them their own and do their own thing.
