offered for sale :roll: but no one seems interested :wink: so the options were weigh it in :evil: or fix it :lol:
well after a bit of umming and ahhing dicided to get of my arse and fix it :lol:
first off i attacked the rusty patch at the front with a wire brush and what looked like a 6 inch patch turned out to be the entire front outrigger from chassis to wing :evil: so will get the welder fired up and fix that later :roll:
next up the flat tyre so fired up the compressor and pumped up all the tyres with the help of my youngest :wink:
next fired into the sticking handbrake, again with my able assistant, it took nearly all day to get the drum off so i could free up the sticky cable but all done now :wink:
so the mojo is at a high level and just a couple of brake pipes to make, a quick flash with the welding machine and the steering to fix
say it quickly and it dosent seem too bad
ttfn glenn
quite possibly the camper body is coming off as it is starting to buckle so a flat bed or luton sounds likely
decided i couldnt just scrap it as the chassis from the cab back is in very good condition and the cab isnt too bad (steps etc all solid)
