Resto

Grab yourself a copy of @brothernumberone 's book: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/08573324...m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=07DD0TWH7KNQVER46V3K. I'll be using it as my bible when I start my resto at the end of the year.

 

Cheers @JamesLey

 

He's not on commission

 

Lmao

 

That's no bad thing. That means it's an original toughened one rather than a laminated screen. Better it happens on your drive than when you're driving somewhere.

 

True but it just means my shopping list is slightly longer now

 

Any pictures yet ? Put the engine back in mine at the weekend. Wiring and fuel lines now ! Trying to remember where they all go !

 

No pics yet, I'm trying to now make the garage "workable" before I start!!
I've got bits of wiring so tbh I've gotta buy a complete loom!!

 

Don't buy one until you need it then you won't hve to look after it.

 

I got the other one with the camper otherwise I wouldn't have bothered getting it, I may need a few panels before glass lol

 

I was going to say you won't need one for years, but i thought that was a bit cheeky.

 

Be as cheeky as you like!
I'll prove all you negative people wrong in 100 years when it's finished....

 

Ok, so I'm in the middle of removing the last remnants of the front panel and I'm just drilling around the air box but every drill bit I use is blunting due to going through 3layers of metal.....what's the best bit to remove spot welds?! (Yes I've tried a proper spot weld bit!!)

 

Pop a tiny one through first but they have a tendency to snap so go easy

 

I still feel that will blunt up quite quick??

 

Make sure your drill speed is set low and that you've got some cutting fluid on it.

 

Low?? Ok, didn't realise that cheers dude

 

Slower the better. And the idea of a spotweld drill is it's flat so you can drill through JUST THE TOP LAYER or what are you going to weld the new panel to?

 

Well guys I've just had a guy called dan orchard around and he's just told me that my camper will either cost too much to do or basically not worth doing!!!
So I'm going to be cutting him up and there will be seat cuts, A posts and anything else worth keeping....anybody interested??
