    Series 3 Rebuild

    Today started well with a phone call to say the new chassis is ready, so I'm collecting it in 2 weeks. So I thought I'd make the most of a day off work and get a bit more done. I finished the front axle off, but then noticed I'd got the brake backplates mixed up and put them on the wrong...

    Series 3 Rebuild

    Bit more done today with the front axle Old and new chrome balls New one fitted along with new leather gaiter, which was a right pain to fit. You have to cover it in Vasoline which then ends up everywhere And this is where I'm at. I've got tomorrow off, so it'll be done...

    I've already looked into it all, and mine's before the cut off date for needing a number on the chassis. The chassis number plate on it's own is enough

    Series 3 Rebuild

    I thought I'd post up about my Series 3 rebuild I've just started. It began after Christmas when I bought this old fella from a local owner. It hadn't moved in 15 years, and was looking a bit unloved. This is where I found him Here is his back home, looking a bit sorry for himself...
