Re: Restoration
Rewiring I bit the bullet and got stuck in to my re-wire today. What a pig of a job trying to neatly route the loom through the exhaust heat shield and connecting up to the starter motor with such restricted access, and having already suffered putting the old harness back in only to be taking it ba...

Re: Restoration
Yep Autosparks. They really took a knock from covid restrictions so accepted the 16 week lead time. I ordered mine on the 8th October last year, so 16 weeks with Christmas/New Year break. I was relaxed about it as I was stopped for winter anyway.

LT95 Value?
Anybody able to suggest the UK monetary value of a good condition LT95 from a 110V8?

Re: Back In The Fold.
What is about the vehicle that you missed so much that you regretted selling it? I'm intrigued to know in what way it captured you.

Re: Restoration
I've pretty much had to pack up for the winter now. No point trying to spray paint in cold damp windy conditions and I don't have enough room at the moment inside the garage tent. However, I did manage to get the front wings and centre panel repaired and in sealer primer. There's a bit more to do to...

Re: Restoration
Great to see you making the effort. Ill health is hard to push against. :) Thanks. Yes, things seem to get progressively harder each day, but I'm not in a race to finish; I just want to finish it! 😅 As long as I can keep moving forward, a day here, a day there, I'll get there. It is daunting when I...

Re: Restoration
I carried on with the bodywork today. First I wanted to test how best to afix the reinforcing I've decided to fit. I thought the easiest and hopefully best option was to bond with epoxy. I'd ordered some JB weld which should do the job nicely. There are no doubt a multitude of alternate adhesives I ...

Re: Restoration
Continued the repairs and and pre paint preparation to the front wings. I first sprayed the wings with epoxy primer. I use the HB body stuff, it's excellent! 4:1:1 Sprays nice, sticks, give a good layer that sands flat very easily. https://i.postimg.cc/vBQ85LFr/IMG-20210913-150014.jpg https://i.post...

Re: Restoration
Not much of interest to report. Between bouts of inclement weather, chronic pain, and low motivation levels, I have pressed on with the pre-painting prep to the front wings. https://i.postimg.cc/ry5gZ63y/IMG-20210906-155050.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/VLRg1qz3/IMG-20210906-155109.jpg https://i.postimg....

Re: Restoration
While waiting for a delivery of electrical bits n bobs to complete the wiring, I thought I'd best sort the fuel line to the new facet pump. Had a look under the inspection/access plates in the rear tub floor. Nothing surprising but earth connection to sender unit was poor, so add this to the wiring ...

Re: Restoration
I've been struggling with the wiring. After connecting things back up and routing the loom where it's supposed to go, I had to replace the ignition switch and then found there was a short to ground somewhere. Well, after some rather tenacious fault tracing, I finally worked out that it was my speedo...
