Never ceases to amaze me what some people will use for sending stuff in...  :laugh: :laugh:

Might as well use a wet paper bag with a hole in it...  :grin:

Update: 

Alternator -





Gave the brakes a good overhaul including brake lines, seals etc -











Gave the pulleys a quick tidy up since they were off. Including stainless steel bolts -









Took the old engine loom out -









Spent today wrapping my new/old uncut loom -



Also managed to build my RM's and get tyres fitted -





Just need to paint the centre caps and get new badges.

Apologise for the crap iPhone pictures. Really need to get a decent camera....
