Is that a tick list? To bleeding organised! The best way is to
strip it down, leave it for a while and then wonder where the
hell you left it all.

So first i should probably say sorry for not putting anything up
on here for ages! No excuses except I have been working hard on
the wagon! So far I have stripped the axles, repainted nearly
all the bodywork by hand am just sorting out the engine and
gearbox to stick onto the chassis :) :smilewide: here are a few
pics of progress
Here is the new galve chassis from Richards. Absolute beaut,
although a pig to collect from hampshire!

[quote]Only problem is that the rear diff has no fill point and
looks like it has been welded at some point? If anyone can
suggest how I could go about filling it up I'd be much obliged!
[/quote]
.....with no filler/level plug the only way to fill it is via
the axle tube.....or rip the diff out and drill the diff pan and
weld on a new filler/level plug :thumbs:
