Been looking at refreshing the rubbing strips, first attempt on a spare strip was to machine out the old section and fit a new chrome piece.

I'm just going through it now to get any silly bits sorted, fitted new seat base access panels, a new interior light surround and had the A/C tested and re gassed and all was working spot on

Also found it looks like the heated seats aren't working so will be fitting new elements next tuesday at www.nationwidetrim.co.uk

Came across a LH side seat plinth trim which was new old stock
so will be fitting that today as the one on my Range has cracked
around the screw hole

When we stripped the lower tailgate it would appear that i've lost the
the badge that was on it.

Luckily i've found a replacement and it arrived this morning

The new heated screen has been taken out and re fitted correctly with
new trims, it was originally replaced by my insurance companies fitters
who sadly didn't do a very good job.

Fits perfectly now and no damage to the trims

Off to check out a couple of body shops next and see who impresses
me enough to do the paintwork

Hi Dunk - looks great, impressive work.

What sort of money is this worth now?

Cheers
Thanks, i have no idea but i'd like to think looking at others its got to be £30k + once the paint is done, it'll be better than when it left Land Rover 23 yrs ago smile
