Bought for parts

Finished work early so had a go at the roof
used those aluminium welding rods to fill the old Ariel hole they take so much to get used to as it was hard for it to take at first as I was worried about melting holes in it
But I got there in the end it needed a tiny skim of filler to fill the tiny ripples but better than a hole
Got most of dents out to a acceptable look I probably dent it again when I 4wd in it when it is finished anyway

Also fitted new seat belts
I am definitely not a vehicle upholster and don’t like doing it but had a go welded up we’re it had been cut for a radio and filled all the crack it turn out good enough for a landy so dash is half done
waiting on a choke cable then will finish it off

As they would be paying the return freight it probably is not worth sending them back.

That happened to me from them once, I rcd two duplicate orders some years ago & Honest Bee advised them but they wanted the goods back, their cost. Still what would I need 2 x rear Fog lights for? As it happens I have never needed the correct order one yet, but it sorta looks the business just mounted out of harms way above the the Galv mini Bumper, Handles or whatever they are.

Well been a while but have finally finished off all interior turned out good enough for me quite happy with it added a 12v accessory point in the centre of dash , steering wheel cleaned up well with a coat of paint and every light and gauge works spot on
Finished off engine bay with choke cable and choke warning light and added the tie down eyelets to front bumper
Only the tray and rear lights to do then off for rego soon can see the light at end of tunnel finally
