1992 range rover 200 tdi

The lower grill edge lines up with the wing ends, or thereabouts.

Edit. Forgot to say, top job and great save ! I’d say you’re on the home run now.

Bit closer today having shortened the mounting tabs, got the drivers wing on and waxed all under the front arches.

For some reason my horns have not survived the long sleep and both are making dying goose noises. Any recommendarions? Klaxon, air horns?

Tried coaxing the horns and they did improve a bit, but still pretty rubbish. Given the cost to replace is not that much and there is no way to get in them without destroying them gave up.

Had at least two weeks with no rust so went looking at the rear quarters. These had some suspicious looking wavy profiles. Pictures show what lies beneath.

This was intended as a quick dirty repair until next year when i can do a better paint job and probably replace with fibreglass quarters.

Opportunity to try another colour matched rattle can but this time i will take this bit along to match against.

Moved outside this weekend as i need the garage space for unrelated tasks. I did bleed the brakes but they are still awful so need another go at that, but it appears waterproof, and will continue to add more of the missing bits.

I do potentially need to add more drain holes in the sills both to be able to inject wax the complete length and to allow better drainage.

Yes, they love to let water in. It’s a Land Rover.
You need to use some sealer against the frame and rubber because water will creep. Also around the glass as it pools at the bottom of the screen by design.
Likewise around the frame on the door shuts for the same reason .

Lots of suitable stuff about but not going to recommend one.
I’m sure someone else will though.

Edit. Seem to remember GN used to highly recommend ‘arbomast’

Not much done over winter as it is now outside, but pleased to report it is waterproof. Replaced the sill covers, these are normally held on with plastic rivets but i have decided to use stainless rivnuts.

On mine it was a case of adjusting the gaps to a roughly even 1/2" or so, I think the soft dash's are better though.

Only really got snags left to address but lost my mojo on it to a degree for the last few weeks. Worked on the interior for a change, glovebox back in after a bit of head scratching as to the right assembly order. There is a fusebox i need to recall where it was hidden, no evidence as to what any of these do and it is factory standard. I will determine what these do before tucking it away. This is a poverty spec diesel so not that much to protect with a fuse.

Last photo is of a drop link dust cover, annoyingly this has zero miles on it, limited uv exposure and already cracking. Replaced with new boots as joint is new.

Working through the list of remaining issues and attaching the fuel tank strap was one of them. Only the part of the chassis this was on had disintegrated and I had forgotten to put it back.

Nice still day last week so stuck one back on, painted and waxed.
