It's finally here

I updated in the mechanical section, but short version here. Wiring loom modified, new radiator installed, engine running, all body panels back in place. Still need to do exhaust, then it's about ready for inspection. Still waiting on some minor parts, should arrive early May, so project right on track. Hoping to have exhaust done by the time the remaining parts arrive.

Been a while since I posted, but bottom line is I eventually got the Jeep inspected and passed earlier this year. My hopes for having it done by Christmas had to take a back seat due to family issues, then the apprved guy who was to do the inspection pulled out "not enough time and you're putting too much pressure on me" he said?? Anyway, got the inspection done at another shop, now have historic registration on it. Learned a lot about the oddities of the Australian Jeeps along the way and some of it updated in the files section. Had problems with carburettor, so full rebuild only to find most of the trouble caused by electric fuel pump. New mechanical pump obtained and fitted, so running reasonably well. Now looking to upgrade the ignition system so once again waiting on parts, this time for the Lucas distributor, but at least it runs and drives now. Don't know if these things are ever "finished" but this one is pretty close for now.

Looks good!
