With inner arch panels that expensive you might as well buy some oil drums and tub it really.

ah yeah... that's a nuisance isn't it? You could always get around it by fitting a chromed Jag rear end which is the perfect excuse to jack things up to a ludicrous degree.

I figured i'd take the rotten front wings off as I have fibreglass replacements coming. It will give me better access to the a-panel rot (the P4 always goes here, such a bad design.) and to the suspension the cut the springs. Ah, turns out you need to open the doors wide to remove a panel, arsehats. She currently doesnt move, distinct lack of wiring you see. One £60 self present later  This is a thing now. No coolant in there and the carb is losing all its fuel out the bottom, but hey... |

Few small jobs carried out Metal Brake line front to back replaced Rad hoses fitted & filled up with water to check for leaks (no leaks) then drained from a lovely brass tap, cause of freezing weather Centre section of the exhaust replaced Carb removed & stripped, new diaphragm on order from burlens, along with a couple of gaskets  Shocking shocker!     |

So, has the car changed hands?

My worst worry about dying is my wife selling my stuff for what I told her it cost...

Yes, I am now the proud new custodian of this fine motor car

Ah good, that clears things up. Wasn't sure if you were at LS's place helping to fix or the new owner, was confusing for a moment. Looking forward to updates.

As I said to low standards when I collected the car I am not in a position to crack straight on with this project, but it is in my list of dream cars, so I had to buy it,
I have a spoilt princess throwing tantrums in my garage at the moment & veraciously consuming all of my spare time & cash,(1990 Range Rover)
but I sneak under the car port for some naughtiness with aunty🤭
