Much work still to be done.

CJ has decided to respray the body.

Then there is the plumbing and the wiring.

Then the final engineering and rego.

It is impossible to estimate the date of completion.

No harm in asking, lets hope LRH gets the Rangie engineered in time so we at least have one to drewel over. Matt

This weekend:

Body works continue.

This is part is not sexy. It involves fiddle and head scratching.

This 20 year old vehicle is revealing it’s frailties hidden previously by seats and bulkheads.

County Owners this could be the bottom of your B pillars. They look fine from the outside but within just iron oxide.

Passenger side prior to surgery:

Driver’s side after surgery:

A bit of prosthetic prior to welding back to fill the holes.

Care is required to brace the body to prevent distortion whilst welding.

Next weekend:

I’m off to Aces. John will continue with the body.

There is a bung under the pillar. I bought a car which had done lots of beach work. Removing the plastic bung and spraying fresh water up the pillar to wash out the mud and salt would have delayed the rust damage. You can buy similar bungs from Clarkes or land rover of course. It's a bit hard to remove them without destroying the plastic bung. Wrecking a bung every 12 mths is lots cheaper than wrecking a B-pillar.
