I need to do some adjustment to the panel gap between the bonnet
and wing top as there is quite a gap there.

For anyone wondering, the wheel carrier on the bonnet is one off
aan ex moD 110, an easier thing to use than the series one i
reckon.
Jobs to do now:
Adust panel gap,
Tidy up wiring in engine bay,
fit mudshield brackets,
Investigate why alternator isnt charging and charge light isnt
wiring up (suspect the plug at the alternator is loose)
fit checkerplate to wing tops
Fit arial
Fit front mudflaps
Paint
(Not strictly in that order though haha)

Didnt get round to much tonight in the end but did manage to
finish tidying up the wirng in the engine bay, only need a
couple of P-clips to support the main conduit run on the drivers
wing.
Tomorrow evening may be a bit of a marathon event as I'll borrow
a few bits. Jobs I shall hopefully get done:
Adjust wing height,
Fit mudshield brackets (swap over from my old wings)
Fit door seals with sikaflex (sticks like shit to a shovel,
works extremely well, used on all other door seals to great
success)
fit the door stay and my door card
Sort out my arial
Bolt in mudflaps
Fit the NS sidelight properly
And if all that gets done reasonably handy then I may crack open
the white undercoat and give everything a coat of that to see
how she looks. Will be a good even base for the blue then too
which may go on over the weekend

MoT booked for Saturday morning 10AM. Need to get much arsedness
to finish the odd jobs before then.
Bolted my mudflaps on tonight and bolted up the wing to the
chassis upright plate thingy that goes to the bulkhead. Also
hopefully sorted out the leaky sump through nipping up the sump
bolts a bit more than they should be. (A quick fix I know but I
have a new gasket which ill sort out when i do an oil change.
Only really need to put my door seal on now as well as fit the
brackets to take the mudshields before checkerplate.
Larger job is to lift the wing slightly to close the gap between
bonnet and wingtop which is rather large.

I would have gone for more of a spin but retired to put my
checker plate on to hide my beaten up wing tops :rolleye0012:

Also if anyone's on Anglesey, the garage in my picture above is
very series friendly. He deals in parts too quite cheap.

Had a good bank holiday weekend with the old landy, took her to
the garage on Saturday morning to sort out the tracking which
was out very slightly and is now spot on, its lovely driving
with a centralised steering wheel again! Took it for a spin then
with my mates in the back, did about 20 miles in it. Here its at
the Holyhead breakwater park, an old quarry/ brickworks.

between Aberffraw and Rhosneigr
