So I thought I'd sit down and make a rough list of jobs I have yet to do:
Strip out interior and find and fix any remaining rust, then refit
Fit replacement bonnett,
New shock rubbers and spring bushes,
Get wiring soughted and all lights ect working
Replace thermo housing and new thermostat,
Fix /replace window washer motor,
Fix hole in d side floor,
Fix toe bar mounts and fit replacement bar,
Replace grease nipples, ect ect
Replase windscreen and rubber,
Get second hand tyres fitted,
get a jack
Hopfully at this point I can get the RWC,
Bullbar,
Tyre carrier
Respray
Well tats all i can think of at the min I's sure I'll find more as I go lol

well at least alotta those things are not very expensive, all the rubbers, seals and nipples shouldnt cost too much, they are just time consuming. all that rust is gonna be a pain for you tho, but hey you knew what you were getting yourself into before you started. the elec stuff shouldnt be hard, fairly old car, fairly simple system, if you need any ideas, or help with the process, im sure i can lend some knowledge, just give us a bell!
