I was hoping the winking face gave my funny away lol.

Amazing detail in the rebuild.

Ha I see my eyes are not very good nice one and thanx for the build comments regards gatso

Hi found you,looking like your standard quality build, ocd i think you have.are you building this one out of steel at cresent.nice work vin.

Thanx saccy 😄ocd lol no steel got late tdci tub and seat box 😊😊

Few piccys of back axle now complete need to get ma chassis into ma garage and get them on along with tank ,brake and fuel lines 😃then strip and rebuild 300 engine and r380 box but I'm hoping to fit a 6 speed box and a puma bulkhead if they come along at the right price 😃😃😃

Nice detailing, the words Eat, Your, Dinner and Off spring to mind
Good work

Very nice work Gatso! Can't wait to start another myself

Awesome pics. I'll use those to go with my pics to get a better idea of how to shape my new brake lines.
Have you got any more of the rest?

Top man. I was too quick to scrap mine. (Having said that most areas of the house are full anyway) I've got quite a few pics, but your shiny pics of new parts look better

:rolly:

well a good day yesterday ,managed to source a tdci bulkhead complete minus clocks which is a shame because i can use binnacle to do the dash pod conversion has done by a guy on here ,still one will turn up ,. so bulkhead is off a damaged defender so has pedals heater etc wings where u/s but has tunnel to mate to a previously bought seat box ,going to strip in due course paint it (when i decide or my grandson decides on a colour) and fill it with wurth or dinatrol .so body wise i need front wings ,doors and rear door ,bonnet ,i have an aircon front grill (don't u just love ebay) don't know whether to go puma bonnet or oldskool td5 ????????ebay got me a pair of new headlamp bezels by kbx £25 :blabla::rolly:

Any corrosion on the bulkhead?

Are you using any original panels, mate?

No corrosion on bulkhead and new or has near to new for all the panels 😃cos ime a fussy c😜nt lol
