Not much update, I've been using it a bit for work though and taking my little lad to swimming lessons in it & daughter to tennis lessons

I've painted the front galvanized window frame... I know this is 'bad' but I think it looks much better.

I changed a front indicator for a new one as it wasn't holding the bulb and kept going out. When refitted I but the wires / connections in a plastic junction box to keep them protected from weather... Need to change the indicators next

This was a little trip out with my lad (window frame half done)

More jobs adding to list...

sand & paint the roof.
Fix door shutting better
drivers footwell - replace
lock on drivers window

Its great using it though in the nice weather

Ages ago I decided that I would like a union jack bonnet.... Spent ages watching bonnets on eBay / gumtree etc, all too much.

Then got lucky on a premium bonnet for £12.60 !!

Ended up not collecting it for 6 month (I did pay straight away and kept the guy updated)

Anyway collect and the transformation began 👍

Harder than we thought as it had the wheel well, but I love it. Got the kids & wife helping at various stages.

OK so very little room for 4 People and camping gear in a 88" when camping especially if your used to a 110

Fixed this by doing up a little trailer.

I did think about a narrow track for the series,

But they are heavy (even when empty) and much bigger.

This little trailer I can move around easily and store.

Well I'm still enjoying the series

Fitted another two lap belts to the seats closest the rear window. This way I can put the wheel inside and still get the kids in when needed.
