Default Feb 2015 update

Just to keep the updates flowing.

I have ticked off a couple of Jobs from my MOT list.

The battery is now secured with a metal strap.


I have removed the bonnet into the shed and purchased the landrover front indicators.
Finally I have decided to attach them to the either side of the front grill as per No.1 and No.5.
Fitted some vw campervan chrome surrounds to the headlights and am currently messing about with difernt options for the front grill.

The low level unpresurized overflow bottle has not been located yet,
but I have blanked off the radiator and thermostat pipes with some nice red silicon caps.
These are required as I now have a combined thermostat pressure cap housing and can get rid of the high level expansion bottle
that was in the way of the bonnet closing .


I have also exchanged the sheet steel front bumper supports for angle iron for easier access to the radiator fan, horns, timing marks and steering rack.
Previous I could not do this as the bonnet was supported by these panels.

I am working on the heater inlet cover and hope to have that fitted for next months update.

I really do not want to get the floors and door sorted but cannot mess with fibreglass
when the temp under the carport is only a couple of degrees above freezing.

Hopefully a bigger update next month
