Thanks topkit . It is always good to hear how other people are doing the job :thumbup: and getting good results :bow: . I have the wheels and bonnet area all painted up and looking good , makes a world of difference . I will keep that paint supplier in mind when I get a bit further on with the work ...

Thanks , I had a look at that paint , I see the guy has a lot of sales . How far does 1 litre get you ?. I spray painted a Landy in enamel and had mixed results . I was looking at Polyurethane paint on ebay and there is someone selling 20 ltr drums for under 100 quid . http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Skip...

That looks very good indeed .
What sort of paint did you use ?

Well done
Always good to have brakes .

I think the axle needs split to do the brake discs etc . That's obviously a fair bit of work . My own brakes weren't the best and I replaced them , but the biggest difference seemed to come with bleeding them .

I'm no sure about the bolts you mention , does the orbitrol not just fall away when you unbolt it ? Best of ...

You've done a good job mate , on the video as well . I bought the kids an Aldi or Lidl GoPro each for Christmas , so we are just starting to get into all this video stuff . We don't have a Mac , so it'll be something else that I need to look into . Certainly agree that with a bit of effort the video...

I also had a look and I see Green Plant Machinery on ebay as well . From a lot of the stuff I have been sent by various suppliers there seems to be one main manufacturer of these aftermarket pins and bushes . I think you will get the same bits no matter where you shop . Ok , there might be some crap...
