Would reckon pinion bearing collapsed and took everything else with it


Down to chassis behind firewall and confronted with what was once "Black soil" to be chipped off.

S1 wagon in need of work

Love the LWB series1 station wagons wish I bloody didn't sell the one I had, would give my left arm for one. Great find by the way keep us up dated on its progress.

I just caught up with a mate in Chiddingfold and went for a spin in wagon #7 to a local gun shop where we found a lovely 51 in the car park.

Thanks for that - maybe it will spur me on to get mine finished.

Well Guys, great to see so many Series 1 there, but my question, how did you guys get nice straight front fenders, did you purchase new ones, or just lucky finding good ones?
