Had a busy few hours in TBOTG with mixed results. Bagged an over the top fuse box of ebay with plenty of spare connections - only used three of the twelve available.
From left to right we have relays for lekky pump, lekky fan, overdrive and air-horns.
I re-welded the thermostat cover and fitted it, guess what - no leaks [^]
As Tim says its heavy duty so hopefully it will last a while:I
Trial fitted the repaired front engine cover after sawing off one of the original bottom fixing bolts that was siezed in - not a bad fit.
It will need a bit of fettling on the bottom corners to make it seal properly but they should tap into place once everything else is bolted in place. I took it off again to fit the new seal I got off Martin and to drill some new holes for the securing screws. While I was at it the inside got a good coat of underseal - good for sound deadening, I'll fit it tomorrow.
The little repair above the rear wheel arch sort of grew:I
This is the lower skirt after half an hour with a bolster chisel
I had to remove it to get to this
Most of the lower panel is solid it's just the joint between that and the inner cill that's knackered. Cutting disc time
