Yesterday I de-horsed the front carpet section (how the previous owner got a horse in the front is beyond me - it's only a SWB :lol: ). I also hammered and bent the rear lip carpet retaining strip back into shape, buzzed all the rust off it and repainted it. Looks a lot better now :D

Also tried to fix the b*&^%y fuse that keeps blowing - tried cleaning up the earth point in the rear light with some wet and dry and thought i had fixed it, but blew again. Gonna get some crimp connectors on the way home and try sorting it properly.... Joy....

Oh, and begun the WD40-spray-daily-countdown to fixing the missing drop link :)

Not alot, just cleared out some rubbish the kids had left in there. Took Mrs H for a drive to various places she had to go.


Saw Krushers truck Friday, and then it did look Red, and very clean.












Now where did i leave my glasses!
For what it's worth it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable but in the end is right

Finally got that darn rear crank seal fitted,
only got as far as re-fitting fly wheel, clutch, gearbox, and starter motor along with the electrical bits.Then it was time for tea and :drink: Still to do propshafts, gear sticks, slave cylinder and the under plates.

If I ever have to do this job again, I'm not doing it on the drive. (that g'box is freeking heavy and there's not alot of room underthere, would have been easier to lift the engine out)
The greatest lesson in life is to know that even us idiots are right sometimes
