daz76 Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 I don't know-you spend a few weeks away from HMVF and Daisy's practically ready for the road! She's looking fantastic Andy and as many have said a real credit to you. Can't wait to see her at a show sometime. All the best mate and thanks for posting all the pics. Very helpful to see the inner workings of some of the bits. Daz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero-Five-Two Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Hi Andy, Just read Daisy's life story, and I've got to say that is a "proper" job you are doing. Wouldn't worry about how long it is taking, and anyway what's 5 years between friends. She will be the absolute mutts when she is done. Like everyone else I look forward to seeing it out and about, if you have any money left for petrol Rob Zero-Five-Two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyFowler Posted February 7, 2011 Author Share Posted February 7, 2011 Any sort of progress over here? All gone very quiet Hi Rob , good to see your Explorer is nearing release out onto the highway ! Llandudno must be calling now ! Daisy is still ticking along but only as and when work allows as usual ! :embarrassed: Recently beening cleaning up the winch drive gear and replacing the drive shaft oil seal (thanks ChrisG)! Nearly ready for a lick of paint and then I can refit it ! I've got a huge pile of copper brake air pipes that need annealing before refiting and would like some advice on a good method of doing this as some are about 8 feet long ! Look forward to some more video of yours as the weather improves mate ! :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbrtcrowther Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Have you been inside that for a look? Was it all full of water like mine? With some kind of cheesey goo floating on top:-X looking good though. I feel we might have to start harrassing you to post more pics of your sneeky underground tinkerings:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyFowler Posted February 7, 2011 Author Share Posted February 7, 2011 It had a lovely cream caramel sauce inside ! Not been brave enough to strip it any further than the oil seal Rob and everything behind that was nice and shiney so as it did work ok before I got carried away I thought best leave it be !

AndyFowler Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 Put the winch drive back on the other week and have been putting a few bits and bobs back on ! Now just got to repaint all the bits I scratched :nut: ! I feel like a dog that enjoys chasing its own tail sometimes ! Further progress later this month hopefully when all the "other" activity has ended ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
