Work to do!!

Hi again,

Just back from a guy who is to do some welding for me and it turns out I have a bit more to do!!

First he quoted me about €300 to replace 2 rear hangers, (cut out the old, patch and then replace), weld the centre xmember, patch under front spring, and a few other patches, with me supplying the handers.
Then quoted €200 to treat the chassis, scrape, brush, dry and coat.

What do you think? €500-600 for a soild treated chassis? got to be ok?

While we were under there we discovered the usual leaks, sump gasket, is there a seal on top of the gearbox where the lever / shafts go in?
Overdrive seal, anyone know where to get one?
Also really badly needs a front prop and seals.

Add this top the bits I already have to get, light conversion, mud flaps etc, and its touching €800-900!!

Ah the joys....

Nearly forgot my point pricing stuff, been going with paddocks, just wondered if anyone has found anyone cheaper, where I can get the lot?
Also where to get a second hand prop?

Thanks chaps

James

really can't recommend these guys enough, really good service and on the off-chance they do f**k up they will go out of there way to resolve it for you in a more than satisfactory manner.

Thanks lads!
Handt seen those before Bump, will try them!

Howya I've had loads of stuff sent over from Buckley brothers, they seem resonable with prices, and it's here in three days. I've had a couple of posher bits from LR Series.

Finally got the landy over to the guy and job done!

It now steers, stops and is sitting on a nice solid chassis!
My wallet is now 450 lighter.
I did all the other bits myself except for the seals, I figure the oil will stop the rest from rusting...

Oh yeah, I now need a tank.

Will I ever finish?
