Loving your little teaser shots.

I'm looking forward to a complete view shortly :)

Hehehehe... yep, I thought I'd just keep it to little glimpses as it all comes together. We're pretty close to finished. Unfortunately, I just made an order of small bits and pieces (including the somehow-missing door strikers) from the UK and have just been told that they want to charge sixty quid for delivery. Until I get that sorted, there could be s small delay...

I seem to recall asking this before but did you ever buy an el-cheapo (sand) blaster unit? I'm in the market for one...tax refund time!

You'll be able to affix that sticker I gave you a few years back soon too.

PS. I think I found your next restoration project the other day.

It was on the eastern side of the Bruce Hwy close to Mountain Road (Gundiah end IIRC). It's sitting in this paddock, looking like it's in need of your attention. If this link works it might be one of the objects in the paddock.

It's not Wally's place is it?

Hey mate,

I don't think I'll be taking on another project for a while. Nope, I don't know the Landy in the paddock you mention. The el-cheapo sandblaster I used was Wally's....which reminds me - I probably should give it back one day.

It's not my place but it's not far from me and I know the LR and the paddock in question. It's a blue 109 2A if I remember correctly. The owner is a Land Rover man through and through. As for my sandblaster, I figured when I gave it to John that it would be the last I'd see of it. He's kept very quiet about it.

Sssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.................!!!!!

I picked up some Bailey channel for the windows from Clarke Rubber yesterday. It'll do the job, matches the dimensions of the original and was much cheaper than ordering the "correct" part.

Today I cleaned up the door tops. I am very glad to have got that done as it was the last "dirty" job left to do in the whole rebuild. The tops are sitting in the carport now, slathered in Penetrol, and I will paint them tomorrow.

No photos, sorry, but I will hopefully take some tomorrow.
