Shaun, after christmas would like to do the right hand exhaust downpipes before you swing the engine out, have six flanges made, others to finish or buy, think second week after christmas would suit...........what you think?.
kev.

Keep us posted on the overhaul
Hi Shawn
Please keep us posted on the progress of your overhaul. One work of caution about "overhaul" of a running vehicle, it will take you longer than you would like. Having said that there have been a number overhauls and restorations shared on MLU in the past and I am amazed at the rapid progress some people have achieved. So Merry Christmas Happy New Years, and best wishes that you will be once again enjoying driving your Puddle Jumper again soon. Cheers Phil

Phil , Thanks for your reminder of time scales. its so easy to take something apart more than is intended. My aim is to have PJ back on the road for the end of January so i can get on with the MK1. Basically its a strip , inspect, repair and repaint.
Kevin, That time scale sounds fine, im not going to pull the engine out of PJ so it will not be a problem. I hope christmas has gone to plan for you all and you have had a great time and eaten way to much -i know i have !!

do you remember i said in my last post the engine was not coming out , well change of plan - it is. Got to do it properly . There is lots of muck every where from years of driving. the diff has most of beltring and Holland stuck to it i think.
One of the brake linings is near the rivets the others are all fine, but i will get the full set relined. no other major problem so far ! he are some more photos.
