Cornish Rattler and Son Land Rover Project

[Cornish Rattler]

Moved onto the wiring today after fitting some of the lower dash got rear light, wiper motor and worked out the wiring for other stuff ready for fitting the front wings tomorrow inc rad and hopefully servicing the engine ( transit ) and get it running again

 

[Cornish Rattler]

Didn't get everything done what we expected to do but got the n/s/wing on and lights fitted but spent most of the day replacing heater and rad hoses and tomoz is my last day off but son is still off ( self employed ) so can get most of what else is needed to do in the next couple of weeks, but after we have tidied the garage up will fit the o/s/wing and fit lights and new grill and hopefully some bits we have ordered should start to arrive and get some of them fitted

 

[Cornish Rattler]

Both front wings on now and all lights wired up, still got to do the dash wiring yet but son will do that as I'm back in work tomorrow and still waiting for stuff to come in so will update you all as son gets stuff done
