    I picked the seats up today. I am a little disappointed as I asked the guy to give me an idea on the cost, next thing I know I get a phone call to let me know the seats are ready and the cost is beyond my expectations.

    Well the Lucas parts are in place. I think the L760 is just as hard to find as a L518 pork pie. I have done the fuel tank but I am still not happy, it looks like ****. I think I will have a go at a stainless one with my new TIG welder. The dash will be recovered in between my next trip to China. One thing I do need help on is the rubber seal between the door top and bottom, I am not sure which way is correct, I have stopped and looked at half a dozen series 3's and they all have been replaced with plain rubber. Any help would be great.

    I've had a look at mine, and the 'lip' faces to the inside and up (Towards the door top). The rubber seals I got with my door tops look identical (Was going to take a photo, but can't find them right now).

    Really looking forward to seeing how the finished product looks (not that it is far off...)

    Even the missus is impressed! (trust me - thats a rare accolade!)

    Well I have not been a closet land rover rebuilder. I have not posted because I am spending alot of my time in China (YUK) back there again tomorrow so I have slowed down considerably. I was hoping for the unveiling at the RACQ motorfest but there are key things I can’t find like the door handles. Anyhow I had some time off over Easter so I got stuck into the grey ironbark tray. I had the timber milled especially for me.

    That's brilliant, look forward to more pic's I can use as a reference to build Smeg up. You should be proud of your effort.

    Cheers Ian
