The All New, New "What have you done to your Bay today" thread.

Looks like they have improved the fire extinguisher bracket since I got mine

 

To be fair I had considered it myself with the insurance payout I could have the pickup and the beetle I want

 

Ive never met her, might be like my ex !!!

 

I assume therefore your lead had a plug at both ends and a socket on the bus rather than an inlet - what a numpty. Ooops sorry, I forgot. Im not allowed to comment on electrical safety issues!

 

You are correct with your assumption

 

Ouch!

 

Bit late now i suppose but even if you have the correct lead and inlet then you should connect the bus end first. Then the hook up end.

 

Got the horn working last night didn't annoy the neighbours with too many toots.
Put Tilly through MOT this morning passed without any advisories.

 

Yep, found that out during my pre-MOT activities. One of the rear captive nuts of my "new" chassis members had rotted out . Fortunately, the rest is ok. Everything's since been flooded out with Dynax. God knows where this water comes from - it's a mystery. I'd assumed it had wicked up where the bumper irons attach. Always wondered what those little tabs on the rear panels were: I assume they're "gutters" to stop water seeping up on top of the chassis rails.

 

Checked me oil pipes out after a few hundred miles of running. Everything lovely

 

It must be coming from higher up as I've got no bumper or irons fitted

 

Which side is yours coming out of?

 

Bit more work on my top locker. Looks ok in pics but looks a bit rough. Hopefully finish off and varnish tomorrow. Might look a bit better then. You get the gist though. Be great tomhave a little more storage, and it is only a ltlle but should take my crockery in one side and wash gear etc in the other!

 

Bit more done and a trial fit. Lots of sanding and varnishing needed now. And some repairs as i dropped it ffs

 

New curtains, auto fire extinguisher in the engine bay and put the wire back on the idle cut off solenoid Should have been a nice day out today if it wasn't for that pesky wire. Nearly ready for our first overnighter

 

At last fitted the rear engine tin that @davidoft sold to me after refurbishing it and painting up some bits in the noisy cupboard. Old one is falling to bits so engine bay now looks a lot smarter and hopefully will also run cooler . If anyone wants the old one it is free to anyone who wants to collect it - or it is going in the skip.

 

Got V5 back from registering import. Got number plates made. Went 4 first drive. Fuel pump is leaking so fitting electric.

 

Got side lights in the headlights finally,

Led upgrade in the dash lights,

Now deciding to do a small install so got some nice beats top bop along too
