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

Finished installing my interior, well it’s installed to a point now that it’s usable I guess it’s never finished, still the gas to plumb in but happy with the how it’s turned out.

 

Put new rear tyres on it.

 

Emptied a can of Dinitrol into various cavities in it.
Spent the day working in it from home as usual.

 

Noo anti roll bar and all the gubbins, went ok but no pics - it's an anti roll bar ...
After 5 years of having a leisure battery finally got around to strapping it in properly.

Checked the date on the LPG gas hose... whoops, April 2000. Is it really 20+ years since I last changed it?

Fitted new gas hose

 

Fitted mudflaps i bought 3years ago

Drove it, enjoying the newly greased passenger side rear cv boots.
Had lunch in it... drove home thinking..... "I'll do the other side this week."

 

Refitted petrol tank.
All connected up inside - just the outlet to do.




Made a panel from 3mm plastic to replace the ageing hardboard original.

Was going to crack on and refit the bulkheads but rain stopped play.

Random pic of interior..

Gave it a good clean inside ready for camping next weekend

 

Fitted a towbar but it’s so tall I need a drop plate for me ball and I used scotch locks on the lectriks

 

Decided in the end to avoid Amazon and get this one from eBay, just a tad more money but a 170° viewing angle - Auto-Vox M1 pro. I may have been lucky as the price seems to have gone up by £20 since I bought it last week.

 

Fitted some air shocks, hopefully finish the job tomorrow. Still dont know if they will be better than what was on there.

 

Speedo time..



That inner cog got loose again.. giving the spindle its on a whack seems to have got it stuck this time. If in doubt percussive maintenence

Put this on.

 

Got a bit more of the interior done.

I adapted the top mat in the picture (from a microbus I think) to fit under the rear crewcab seat.

It will hopefully further deaden noise and stop anything stored under the seat from sliding about quite so readily.

Just been jet washed in the photo..



This is what it will look like when fitted..





Got a couple of interior panels properly fitted with clips / bungs etc..





And then the rain returned

That’s it for today but some good progress this weekend despite the weather.

Wrestled the tailgate window seal onto the glass. Satisfying when it finally pops into place.

 

Slept by the beach

Washed her, hoping to rekindle the love, found several more jobs to do, instead

 

Don’t wash it. You’ll only find more rusty bits
