I bought a diff pinion oil seal from Earlpart £6 and 2 back brake cylinders from Dingbro.£11. Not too expensive and have had a new petrol tank fitted.
Took the Estate for MOT yesterday and it passed with no advisories. 8-)

More cavity wax, 'Rejel' brand. It's the same company as Dinitrol, just their new brandname, also a bit cheaper than the Dinitrol brand!

5ltr can of Comma/Halfords 20w50 oil (bought with friends trade discount :shh: ) and a mann oil filter for my 3k oil change.

also just got a set of Brown&Gammon 1.625:1 roller rockers and stronger+lighter tubular pushrods and followers. Just need to find some effort to fit them along with the ported, flowed head that I aquired.

A pair of leaf springs from the very helpful folk at Midland Road Springs in Coleshill. Had a few days off work so I thought I'd pop up the M42 and collect them, told the Mrs we were going for an afternoon out in the West Midlands!

Set of Spax dampers and Supaflex polybrushes also on order, lucky marina, poor old credit card!

Top and bottom engine gasket kits in preparation for the rebuild for the pickup engine. New timing chain, tensioner, water pump, oil filter.

I won't know whether to buy standard or + 'x' thou big ends until its apart and I can check the big end journals.
