Thread: Bundalenes Daughters 130 repair job

Got the blue slip or roadworthy certificate today - not much else. All the other work still has to be done.

We will book the car in on Monday for the authenticity check. The lead time on this is usually 3 weeks.

That gives us 3 weeks (of spare time) to strip the car down again, fix the 2 front guards, repair some small dings, prepare all the panels and body, prime, 3 coats of paint and 3 coats of clear, then re-assemble and re-install screen. Still unsure of the colour - white at this stage is the easiest by far.

Also picked up the rear tail shaft and made enquiries about new springs and shocks.

Andrew is chasing up on wheels and tyres and a sound system.

Well Lou, We are very proud of both our children - their upbringing, their dedication to their schooling & education and the final direction they have decided to take in life.

We can only hope the future continues to bring them success & happiness.

If we can help them along the way - in ANY way - we will.

I'm positive all parents would do the same.

White is easiest and coolest but the old bauxite hits it hard after a while - but that is not news to you.

Yours and Derek's Puma are decent colours for up here and so far the Epsom Green on STUUU seems to be holding up OK. Dare I say it - have you asked Sharon & Alfred?

I assume you go for a standard size on wheels due to their location and trye availability at short notice?

(Wonder if the number plate "ALL OVER" is available now......from the Defender which was in Gove until last year.)
