does that count as working on the landy

Yes, cos I had to work on the accelerator and brake. Which means I'll need to put more fuel in and a tiny little top-up with oil tomorrow.

helped hubs take the wing off cos he was making a right hard job of it got the heater hose back on which was whole reason for taking wing off, then put wing back on all by my own 10 times quicker than it took hubs to take it off lol

Today ive welded on 2 inner arch sections on my 300 tdi,primed them,and rattle canned them back to blue, refitted all inner door trims /rubbers seatbelt holders,and sill covers, and all this when the weather man stated ive no chance of doing fookall today,Also attempted to reglue the roof lining back but alas this failed totally,so now it looks like i got to source a replacement headlining

Finished off me timing belt change. All went fairly well but the timing seems to of shifted a bit. Runs and sounds good but it aint starting as well as it did. I have read through a thread about adjustment on the 300tdi, so thats me next job!

Reglued the roof lining and washed dog nose marks off the passenger window!

Got the timing sorted this morning, starts on the button now! Big thanks to Batenberg for his post... great help.

as promised i have learnt how the digital witchcraft camera works and then magically beamed the pictures to this contraption and hopefully you will be able to see them!
not finished yet, but these are my sides steps, the box section that i've made the sill parts and mounting legs to the chassis from is supposedly rated to 3500kg load, and the step is made of 40mm box section, about 3mm thick wall, i've got to cap the ends of the box, and i'm going to lay some catwalk into the gap flush with the box to make something to stand on.
hopefully they'll stop people banging their doors against mine, stop trees and rocks smashing my bodywork to bits while i'm playing

fitted brevva extensions to both the noo disco and Tufftee (Tuffte had fishtank tubing! changed the fool filter and the air filter on the noo motor.
