  1. Butchered an old Land Rover outrigger for the thick steel and a seatbelt mount plate to make this...

    I didn't have any belt mounts in the back as mine used to be a panel van so wanted to build something heavy duty so I can use some of @davidoft 's inertia belt brackets when the time comes

  3. Reset plug gaps and replaced points. First time I've done it myself. Now running like a dream. Really chuffed. Going to make it more difficult to say goodbye though.

    Took the rear bumper off (only sheared one of the eight bolts in the process, which I call a good result) and set about sorting the rust before it gets out of control
