What did you do with your Series 2 in November

[simonbav]

I successfully made new aluminium seat box end panels and got the driver's side fitted. I bought a m2 1.2mm ali sheet for £44 before I saw both ends delivered from Ebay for £38 so I've plenty left to make the passenger underseat box with. I have to slot the sill fixings yet.

Some weld through primer to the new bulkhead foot and attached. Footwell next.

Sorted out the NSF indicator. I had to replace it eventually, fortunately I had a spare.

Nice puddle welds! Not a pigeon dropping in sight! I suppose that iron ore next to it is the old footwell?

Thank you! It is indeed, its all new to me so i dont want to go taking out too much at once as i have no memory either 🤣

Thats the next job pick out the spot welds in that footwell and replace the whole thing.

Although the new NSF indicator was in position it wasn't very secure as the area where it fixes has disappeared a bit. I had a look in the local DIY shop and found a strip of metal with 4 drilled holes. They were too big but I bought it as I didn't have any scrap steel. I drilled a small hole and enlarged it until the self tapper screwed in. I then cut of the small piece with the hole, cleaned the edges on the bench grinder and then positioned it inside the wing. It worked so I made another. I didn't need a third as that screw was ok. The light is now secure.
This is on a Series 3.

I have 2a wing that's done the same thing, a completely missing (corroded) piece where the N/S indicator should be. Most strange.

Decades of exposure to corrosive elements.

Decades of exposure to corrosive elements.

Sure, the combined effect of those three iron screws.

I reproduced the passenger side seat box reinforcer from 1.2 ali to replace the one I made from galv sheet back in '92

Got a noisy front prop on the 6 cylinder so I think it's time for new UJ's. Found these new-old-stock Unipart items on eBay for less than a pair of new GKN items. Lovely.

I hope they are decent ones , I complained back in the early 1980's about a Unipart one supplied by the Main LR dealer, I bought for my S3 to both the MD of LR and Unipart, as I believed it had less capacity ( Smaller bearings) than the Hardy Spicer originals.  I was told the whole world  stock ended up being  withdrawn and replaced. I knew the engineer at LR whose desk my letter landed on and he said the LR MD went ballistic, as Unipart had not consulted LR before buying different inferior parts. to use as genuine spares.  This was just after one started seeing Unipart Numbers appear as supersessions in parts books.  I was sent a Hardy Spicer one from Unipart as a replacement.

I feel for your sadness, Len. What did you mean, "necessary for it to be rebuilt in my time"?

Did the new owner not want the accompanying parts?
