Merry Xmas

Thanks Steve

Merry Xmas

A bit more of the interior is in

It's back on the original wheels now so looks much better

Have an issue with the alternator so i dropped that off yesterday
to be checked over.

Brakes are bled up so bar the alternator glitch we have a fully functioning
vehicle, bar the stereo

awesome dunkan !

what was the issue with the alternator?

Cheers Adam, if we plug the tacho in the non charging light comes on, not sure
if it is the alternator at fault yet but i'll find out pretty soon.

Fitted a known alternator from another soft dash and it works fine, the local repair shop can't see whats
wrong with mine so i've ordered a new one.

Wiper linkage has cleaned up well, its rust free and now powder coated satin black.

The doors were fitted to make life easier during the move to the new workshop so i
grabbed a couple of pics

Latest photos from friday.

Lower tailgate is being prepped ready for paint along with the scuttle panel.

Shouldn't be too long before its off to be mot'd then into a mates bodyshop
to look at the paintwork

looking great dunkan:clap2:

Thanks Adam

I thought so too

Its coming along nicely Dunkan Well done mate!

Thanks Will.

A few more pics

I'm cleaning the side/indicator units as the insides were quite grubby and new headlights are on order.

Looks like i shall have to make a custom tow eye as mines missing, apparently they're different on the soft dash

There are a few soft dash being broken on flebay, might be worth seeing if they have any tow eyes

Don't suppose you've got any links or contact details for these, i've searched and can't find any. phoned up a few places now and no one has soft dash parts
