What did you do to your Rover today?

Top off!

What wheels are those? I like them

Over last weekend, I made a bikini top for my 88. This was on my "to do" list over the summer but did not get to it until now. Nice thing is we have sunny weather here in the Seattle area for a couple of weeks so I've actually been able to use it. It is intentionally short (only goes to the first hoop) so I can use it with the roof top tent mounted to the tub.

That is sweet! Is it custom?

Attachment 8799Installed a new aluminum rear tank in my 67 109 that is now 23 gallons. Needed a baffled tank to stop the slushing and wanted to get my fuel pump mounted inside the tank as well.

Those look the biz!

How much do they howl? Honest

Finally got my 34X9 TSL's mounted on stock rims.

Replaced the clutch m/c, slave and flex pipe on my LHD SIII. I believe the appropriate phrase is 'character building'.

Master R&R was a bit of a PITA as expected.

[stomper]

Ugh, don't say that. It's on my to do list! Clutch M/C is a must do this spring.

Finally replaced the glass in my new window frame. I took pics of the process but for some reason, they are in a format that Mac doesn't recognize. Pictures I took with my iPhone by the way. Go figure

Finished product



The new frame sits nice and flush to the body



Compared to the old one




Not sure how that attached photo got there..

Finally got my "16mmx1.0 to 3/8" BSP" adapter re-welded and soldered so I can get my heating loop back in action. If anyone is looking for a great Radiator and ad-hoc Welding and Solder shop in Boston area, I had great luck with Natick Radiator. The owner took pride in his work, and really did a nice job getting these two different metals back together for me. It is great when you can find someone and a shop like this. No job was too small and happy to help. After a global hunt for a metric head heater offtake, I found one but also found out that the nipple was 1/2" and the Smith heater I have wants a 3/8" heater hose, and I did not find any 1/2" to 3/8" adapters out there, so back to restoring the original part that broke.

Been a good long while since I posted any progress, but this seems like a good milestone:



Welded in the new frame mounts a couple nights ago. Just needs the oil cooler assy, injectors & glowplugs, and the starter, and I should (fingers crossed) be able to fire her up for the first time.
