Renovation process 2006

  • January 2006 – Bought and fitted 2 new headlight mounts/units. The previous ones were degraded to a point where they needed to be re-mirrored.They were not the correct style and were ‘modern’ replacements that had been fitted in a complex fashion with perspex surrounds to mount them. It was very difficult to adjust them and make them work correctly with the self levelling system. It was easier to refit remanufactured ‘original’ style ones.
  • June 2006 – Hydraulic pump bit the dust and had to be replaced. All the seals and bearings were checked and replaced and fluids topped up again. The boot lid was taken off for a repaint due to cracks forming in surface. [this repaint was not entirely successful]
  • August 2006 – All LHM fluids were bled and replaced and filters cleaned. Brake fluids all bled and replaced. The instrument panel was replaced with excellent new identical one with no broken corners. The rehostat adjuster was replaced and all lights and bulbs checked and repaired in minor ways.
