Wiring schematics: Land Rover Lightweight
Due to winter, haven't done much on the lightweight however since it has warmed up a little in Canberra, coinciding with a long weekend I have worked on the tub (and refitted it) and painted the wheels. Hopefully next weekend will see it nearly ready.
I also looked under the house to see what regalvanised parts I could reattach without too much trouble. Front bumper and tray strips were the chosen options.
Looks great! :)
Snap. Me too, finally some warm days and work getting done.
Last weekend I took a couple of photos of a very nice Lightweight in Sydney. Best I've ever seen outside of books.

Thanks Carzee for the photos. Not having other lightweights near by to compare with, has sometimes made the rebuild difficult. I am glad I took as many photos as i did when i pulled him apart.
The lightweight has been in its present state for a few months now and will hopefully get registered next week. As highlighted in other posts it went over the pits for registration in October but failed due to the shoulder mounting point for the seat belts requiring an engineering certificate. That was obtained in December but despite the brakes having already passed I wasn't happy with them so put the car into the brake shop for a check which ended up costing me a fortune. In effect everything was replaced including drums, and shoes. The shoes were new already but it turns out the quality was very substandard and as such were never going to work properly. The drums had been reworked so many times they also needed replacing.
All said and done however pits again on Tuesday which will hopefully indicate the end of the rebuild.
Looks wonderful, thanks for the pix and good luck at rego. Well detailed. I would love to come see it this weekend or sometime.
(I will bring scot towel -I drool badly around restorations). :D
Jeez, Carzee, you drool around anything :)
Jon, we will have to get you out on one of the club trips when Jim is around - he has a well used lightweight.
John,I am looking forward to some classic trips with the club once registered (hopefully Tuesday)
Carzee not around much this weekend however if it get registered i'll even bring it to your door for a look. As you can see I am looking for excuses to drive it!
