"Dave 2" My "New" MK3

[Muttley]

Yeah beaver seems the way to go, regretting cutting down his chassis now
Still, Dave is getting the attention at the mo I fitted some sounds today and gave him a mop and polish



Fitted plate above bumper so it dont get broken.





It got too cold and dark for more polishing so I went round fixing all the lights



All he needs now is a new diff (Whine city ) and a brake master cyl, and paint the wheels.
Thinking of blue and white rims to match the truck, what do yer all reckon?

[Muttley]

going to see it at the A127 tomorrow??

Didnt get home till half eight so, no

Muttley is in the workshop now, not sure to repair him as a spec or build a beaver and put the spec on Jimmy

build him in to a beaver , muttley used to be a beaver when he was owned by a chap i know in yarmouth untill the prop snaped and he look the back off and put it on a ldv

Yeah, when I got him he had no prop, diff flange, fuel tank etc etc Do you have/ can get any pics of his previous incarnation? Cheers.

[MK3 RECOVERY]

ill have a word but dont hold much hope , i drive past his old back now on the ldv most days .. ,the mk3 looks clean to me .....another bargin no doubt

[Muttley]

Its sort of a bargain, it was £500. However as you have seen the front end werent too healthy and the diff is fecked That said the rest of the old thing is really good for a 20 year old motor

Not much spare time today, managed to fit out the rear cab though




Raised edge on the unit keeps stuff from moving about Only the one seat as I rarely have more than three up

That bumper looks like a snow plow.
Good work m8 and plenty sturdy too.

[Muttley]

Started a bit of signing, amongst the snow showers Bit bloody cold for stickin stuff on but the misus hairdryer was a godsend




Just a start, picked up a brand new bonnet for 4.99 of the bay, pissing off the wife now, spraying it in the front room

[madbri]

ure some mutt 4 1 mutt

[ake]

My missus would kill me for touching her hairdryer, let alone painting a bonnet in the hoose

[Muttley]

What makes you think she knows about the hairdryer I fitted some extra beacons up front as you cant see the rear ones when you are towing. Also fitted some extra forward lighting up there



Getting dark again, only 3.30pm Come on the summer
