Replaced radiator/ heat coil, lines, etc. Replaced hood. Replaced rear quarterpanel and rear lights. Top end engine rebuild including a mildly leaking head gasket (mechanic did this). Ripped out carpets and plugs. Replaced passenger floor. Rhino'd the insides. New brake and steering lines (mechanic). New brakes all round. New skid plates (me and mechanic). Sandblasted and undercoated. Installed new radio and speakers. Cleaned electrical, replacing where I could. Replaced tires (in photo) with Defenders. Hooked up the new LED bars last weekend. Working on reinforcing hardtop this Saturday to handle a basket directly bolted on. Still some painting to do, but mechanically its where it stays.
Runs a dream.
