Nah mate, there all proper repairs, (sheetmetal worker by trade).

I was just intrigued to know what individuals limits were. I do have a cross member on order.

To All,

Aesthetic attachments aside, Im curious to find out where you draw the line when repairing or restoring with your pride and joy.

In the four years of owning my Defender 110, Ive replaced and repaired the following:

Gearbox, (reconditioned)

Refabricated/rewelded bulkhead

Replaced numerous gaskets

Clutch

Clutch Slave & Master Cylinder

Side & Tail Lights

Repainted inside and out, twice!!!

Speedo Cable

Outstanding Jobs:

Rear X-Member, (Think Ive covered this enough for next MOT)

Neg Earth Fault on lighting system

Replace Number Plate Light

Replace Fuel Filter Housing

I enjoy doing this very much, but I do wonder if there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Cheers

Thanks guys.

Have been very impressed with what Ive seen and read so far.

I have a number of pictures to add in the coming future showing my running repairs, mainly fabrication and various home made modifications.

Look foward to picking your brains for advice.
