It is indeed we are about 12 miles away, the Doris and I usually end up there on a Saturday morning.

Sorry about the extra e, it's in the Holme valley, with the e, it gets a bit confusing sometimes when you're hard of thinking

I got a massive bolt stuck in my nice new front tyre! :Cry:

Filled the holes in bodywork where old window grills were.

Oh and tried to start it....fail, after 10 mins of trying junior says have you turned cut offs off. Doh

Fitted a switch so I can turn off reverse alarm at night.

Replaced the washers on the power steering pump supply pipe - hopefully it will not leak anymore!!

Also fitted two of the new hinges before the rain stopped play; the drivers door shuts and opens properly now!

I'll get some pics up tomorrow.......

fitted my front headlining,noticed the rear heading i picked up was infact a middle lining outta 110, fitted an interior light and a rear interior strip light out of a caravan & also finished fitting my raptor dash. oh and also snapped and shreaded my bloody fan belt :censored:

Shortround - any pics?

Highly technical stuff- sprayed WD40 on every bolt holding my steps in place ( and there's not as many of them as there should be ) in the hope that if I carry on doing this for a week I will be able to remove them next weekend

oh! and a new LZ member popped over to get help fit his steering guard as the steerng arm bolt was seized in the hole

Sprayed the front bumper n light guards with primer n cut some chequer plate out for bottom of doors, it's starting to look good now!!

Give it a wash

Fitted a new seal to the O/S swivel. Can't see it lasting though the balls are pitted. I think I will need to save up and refurb' both ends of the front axle.
