Looking good for a quick clean up.👍
Did you source the brake parts locally or from uk?
About to drag our series III 88” Ute back from holiday house to do rear springs and a full brake rebuild.

Bit of both made all lines myself wheel cylinders /steady posts local part suppliers drums /shoes and rest from uk as it was cheaper than getting from over east would you believe

Thanks it’s a semi gloss chassis paint just bad light it’s taking longer than I thought I gave it 2 years but will probably take 3 want to get stuck into my 1960 swb series 2 that’s flat packed in shed

Looking great.
PCV Valve and fittings original or sourced from somewhere ?
Thanks.

Just a comment - the section of hose on the carburettor intake below the elbow looks too long - make sure you have bonnet clearance when its all together.
