some progress
Well. I got back from work on Monday and picked up a few goodies yesterday. Didn't do much as it was cold in my garage but today was quite
productive. Hopefully tomorrow carries on at a decent rate.
Today I virtually finished off my brake lines, except for the braided ones, finished painting the front hubs, finished the clutch (which is a work of
art), fitted the rear shocks (new Gaz Gold) and got the worst of the muck off the diff. Also done the handbrake.
It's not too much but I didn't start till 11 and had to fix my bike too.
Here's some piccies but don't moan about the mess in the garage, it's organised chaos.

Hammerite smooth for all the painted parts. 2 coats seems to be ok.

I'm going without. I figured that with Wilwoods on the front and standard Sierra on the back then I don't think I need it. I can always
retrofit something later if I'm wrong.
I heard about your incident. Entertaining the crowds (or was it cows)!!!
Sounds like you got away with it.

I saw your puddle on the video, or what was left of it.
Bloody amazing that the only damage was the foglight  and maybe a pair of trousers
