Looks good! You will laugh I have same ally bulbar (nudge bar) with mine it came from TJM in mid eighties. But I want to keep original bumper so won't be fitting an ARB bar.oh and you are painting black....I am going Fuji white with maybe black roof- if new a/c is any good
Not painting it black now. I'll get the AC sorted at some stage, but it's not a major priority. It's only a weekender. So if it's above the low 30's I just won't drive it.

Well Understood. Pulling dealer fit HVAC unit out of car the other day, it was only held in place by lower two easy to access bolts. So unit rocked back and forth. Plus drains were garden hose that they had used a screwdriver to punch holes through firewall. With clowns like that fitting out cars no wonder they weren't paragons of reliability!
Well, took it for a good run today - ran like a charm. Given that I have no gaiters on the handbrake or hi/low shifter, I did nearly die of heat stroke, but it's all forward progress. With the new bits in the back, there is no more clunking and apart from the back suspension being a bit stiff I was very happy with it. There is nothing at all in the back at the moment - not even a rear seat, so with all the camping gear in the back, I'm sure it will be a bit better.
So, 1 more step forward, but I found something else that puts me a step back - the LHS hub seal is ****ing oil out, so I now have an oil lubricated front LH disk brake - you can imagine how good it stops now.
Just another thing to add to the list, the entire front end needs work, so that's next I think.
Onwards and upwards...![]()

When I had the dash out, I sorted everything there but my issue now is the compressor from the 3.9 conversion doesn't hook up to the lines from the old York compressor. It's all been decommissioned so long now, I need to find someone good that is happy to make up new custom lines, clean and dry the whole system and gas it up again.
