When Time Becomes a Loop, When Time Becomes a Loop!!

Solid inner cabloading floor still with all paint from 8 years ago.Cut out poor repairs from first resto. I think I need a new inner wheel arch :(MMMMM.....................Tin worm has been hungry!! Ouch that could have really hurt!!! Pulled out seatbelt mounting point by hand!!

Really solid cab floor and inner wheel tubs minus a couple of seatbelt mounts.

1 original j point is gone but thats about the lot as far as cross riggers, chassis rails etc.

Clean above gear box.

Good solid front, including lamp recesses, air vents and outer deformation panel. Considering the £800 originally spent on the purchase and the fact that I restored her with no prior knowledge and only a can opener and a aerosol she is looking pretty solid..........Just in time for a proper restoration!!!
