There's a guide roller that locates in the cover plate, apart from that nothing to fall out. It's obviously easier to put back together on a bench.
You could probably just use gasket cement instead of a gasket on the side cover.
There's an adjuster & locknut on the side cover, slacken this off and adjust once you've re-assembled

Most of the usual suppliers will have the gaskets and O-rings. I buy from an O-ring supplier and get 10 at a time so I have them in stock.

PM your email address and I'll send some photos, if you send your address I'll post an O-ring.

Great job! Your Landy looks marvellous. Congratulations.

I'll second the comment about how good it looks with the roof off. Somehow, Series Landies look so much better open-topped.

Great work.
