    Very pleased with how the wheels have turned out, despite it being a rush job after coming home from work this evening. I’ll have to leave them for a few weeks before ordering some tyres, not just to let the paint fully harden but to stop Mrs H giving me a hard time with the spending just before...

    Rear door fitted yesterday thinking of not fitting the rear wiper as I’m going to fit a rear wheel carrier (SP4x4) galv one but going to paint it black and the plate that fits to the door painting that blue to blend in with the door.

    Tomorrow evenings fettle… start the old girl up and get her up to a decent temperature, dump the water as there is currently no antifreeze in the system.

    Some small wins this evening, decided to order a genuine window outer waist seal as the reproduction one didnt even touch the glass. And guess what neither did the genuine one … hmmm right then I decided the only thing to do was to bend the steel section that the seal attaches to inward. A small...
