What brakes do you have on this mate - single or dual circuit?

single right now.. pretty stock at the moment, pondering options. If I drove the car more it'd certainly be higher up my list of improvements

Few small bits today.

Moved number plate of old tailgate bracket to more standard location... Also with a new number plate lamp that doesn't short everything:



Bit of cleaning of the tray, and other areas.. which I'd not really touched before.. so much mud/dust but coming up a bit cleaner:







Also .. more rust. After moving the number plate I noticed some rot creeping on the other side of the rear cross member this time.

After a bit of prodding:



Anyhow, not too bad..

Inspiring,

good work mate,

Great work.
Hope my SWB looks like that next year.
Where did you get the lights from ????
Thanks.

Sorry for the late reply.. Lights (and most parts) were from paddocks. they do all different sets, LED, filament, white or coloured lenses etc.

Quite a big updated..

In the strive to make the 109 a little quieter and neater inside, I've gone ahead with dynamat (imitation) and acoustic foam, and carpet all over:

Before:


Starting to add rubber dynamat


Then the closed-cell acoustic foam


On to the carpet.. decided against marine carpet, just using regular 4x4/truck carpet


Almost fitted:


Rear before


After clean


Now:


Same at the front


More foam


Exmoor kit installed, this photo doesn't really do it justice, will try to take better pictures later.


Pretty productive xmas project..
