My chip paint turned up so sorted out the chips on the bonnet and front bumper as well as a couple of other places not looking 100% perfect but better than before unless you look close you don't notice anything. The bumper does look better but it needs a respray the muppet that did it before...

Washed her, cleaned and fed leather seats. Painted the recovery hooks front and rear just used a drop of hamerite. Painted up a bracket under the bonnet not sure what it's for its the right hand side of the rad it was looking quite rusty so sanded back the rust to clean metal primer paint...

And that's a good reason to remove them and lift the suspension lol

It might be worth offering a few beer tokens to get someone to take a look at one you have your eyes on then arrange a day off work to view yourself might be able to get a mechanic to do this for you.

Check gumtree that's where I found a guy to do the wife's locking nuts after we broke the key tryring to get the nut off some ape used a gun to tighten them up when they changed the tyres he charged £10 a wheel. Some tyre garages will have the kit. I managed to use an irwins easy out on a...

Last chrome handle now fitted. Grill painted and ready to fit once dry. Painted the tow bar after a quick run down with a wire brush. That's a couple more wee easy cheap jobs off the to do list. If the weather holds I plan to get her polished just by hand but hope it will improve the paint...

Well I managed to grab a couple of hours between jobs today so managed to get the last chrome door handle fitted have been waiting a couple of weeks for it to turn up. I had the front gill in primmer awaiting me having some time so I got it painted now just to get the time to get a couple of...

Found I did have a Sun roof cover it had just been pushed very far back because the fabric was mouldy dirty and sagging to the point it was only heals on at the sides. I just ripped it off it may be black plastic now but looks much better than before. I don't want to drop the head lining to...

I can spin it freely from the start its not stiff at all. I'm not a fan of the electric fans as the worry is cooking the v8 engine I do plan to do the ac fan mod in the future once this is sorted

yeah but it seem to be running full speed all the time

Heater fans have gone again but just don't have the energy to go looking for whats wrong at the min. Still trying to work out the viscous fan swapped out for a used one and both doing the same thing staying on full all the time. I sprayed and fitted the wing mirrors not that long ago but...

Ok so maybe my fan was fine and I didn't need a replacement if so I'm putting it down to newbie inexperience. I will give it a go latter and see if it stops fingers crossed.

Yes engine is cold fan is on full blast from first start up Stu let me see if I have got you right 1 start cold engine - fan on high? 2 run till temp increases a bit - fan now on low and stoppable 3 run engine up to half way on temp gauge and rev - fan on full again? This dosent sound right...

OK before I buy a new viscous unit as I have 2 fans both operate all the time at full speed. I am wondering is there some bodge the previous owner could have done to make the fans come on permanently? Yes I know they should turn but you should be able to stop them with the rolled up news paper...

Finished painting both wing mirrors and refitted looks so much better now they both match and no peeling paint. Then cleaned all the door jams and cleaned the inside I didn't realise how bad it was till I saw the cloth. Pumped up the slow puncture the tyre needs replaced just need to wait on pay...

Just fitted 3 inner chrome door handles I'm happy with the look just need to wait on the postman bringing number 4 now. Need to figure out what other bit where changed I know about head lights done and fogs done and inner handles nearly done and hazard switch on the to do list but what else...

Yeah it should run slowly all the time not full speed only when up to temp should it run full speed

Well it's off just a sore hand from hitting with a hammer do'h. It didn't look like it had moved but thought try the spanner again and it slipped off no probs. Do old fan off new second hand fan on problem still the same fan constantly running so either both fans the same or something else is...
