Post by: 2 hammers on January 28, 2016, 04:33:49 pm: Hi.I was just looking through the gallery and saw your images for the seats in the rear. Thinking of doing something similar. What did you do about the bolting down of the runners. Did you use anything in particular. Do you have an more images you could show me if I pm you? Thanks, Tim.
Title: Re: my s 2a 88
Post by: hippydave on January 28, 2016, 07:13:15 pm: i actually have those seats of Blenkys i was going to fit them as they have the seatbelts built into them and i have all the fittings, but im no longer going to fit them as i cant get my stihl gear in the back. So make him an offer and they could be yours. they are removeable very quickly but ii have no where to store them when not fitted.

Post by: 2 hammers on January 28, 2016, 08:44:09 pm: Aahh. Interesting to both those posts. I would like to see them fitted so would it be possible. I'm only near Halifax could bob over. Glad you mentioned that they were possibly available. I will pm Blenky and see what his plans are. Thanks guys.

Put some paint on and sorted the tub/door panel fit. Drivers side bulkhead was 15mm out at the top so ive undone all the bolts that side and pulled it forward. When all the panels fit nice and have there first coat of paint i will build it up and wet block it before the final coat. Also ice got to get the cappings regalved.

still need to paint a roof and wheels at some point but wanted to get the roof on for now as the weather as ever is **** and didn't fancy driving down to the lro show and running the risk of getting wet.

Either the head gasket/or rings but no water in oil and there was pressure coming out of the oil filler so thought it would be rings. And it is.(http://i1265.photobucket.com/albums/jj518/Blenky1/Mobile%20Uploads/20170108_121212_zpsrm7b7lca.jpg) (http://s1265.photobucket.com/user/Blenky1/media/Mobile%20Uploads/20170108_121212_zpsrm7b7lca.jpg.html)

Diesel but similar symptoms.

Went like excrement from an entrenching tool for a while, though.

When everything got pressurised, oil was coming out of every available orofice.
