[frame][/frame][frame][/frame]

Chassis & Cab number please?

Can we see some pictures?

Yes, put a thread here with photos and details... enjoy reading peoples resto's and seeing photos etc

Yes, this site is Mac friendly. I have posted photos with my Mac without probs.

A tip, make sure that you have reduced the size of the photos to something smallish (say 1 - 2 meg).

Have you read this?

Ollie looks in on me to see how the restoration is coming on when he's bored.

I'm fitting a new pair of front wings as the original ones were poor. Series two front wings I found out are very expensive, I restored many minors 25 years ago when the price didn't seem that bad but now being able to buy online the final amount soon mounts up with the ease of a click, I will put the old pair on ebay, may save some one a load of money sorting them out, should have done that myself but my partner offered to buy them for me - couldn't refuse that could I, lol

Thanks for that Don, worked a treat.

Cheers Fran

Great work, looks excellent. You should have it back together for this years rallys

Im not having a lot of luck trying to source a series two fuel sender unit for my Pick up. I was wondering if it would be possible to fit a later sender unit and also fit the later fuel gauge a matched pair so they would work ? any one tried this..

yes.

I fitted a later dial in my 54 that went thru Africa (as part of a not so perfect LHD dash conversion..) and therefore had to fit the later sender unit to match.

This photo was taken when it was still on the roads late 1980's I bought it 1992 and put it in my shed. I started its restoration late 2013 will be on the roads this summer 2014. Original 803 engine gearbox chassis butt and doors 57.000 miles full service history from new. Looking forward to my first drive out and rally season.

Looks a well executed project aqnd look forward to seeing it in the SW sometime. Will you retain it original colour?

Six months for a restoration, wow you must be working 24/7 !---or am I just slow?

Trying to keep everything original, sandy beige is the original colour which I'll use
