First contact

Got some time to take some photos yesterday evening after the grind. So the photo in post #1 would be the "good side". The driver's side has more going on...

Two dents. Rear quater panel and above the side repeater. I think the rear quater dent should pop back out if I can get to it from behind.


Ugly rust spot on front offside wing. Replace the panel.


Small rust bubbles in a few different spots on the bonnet. Not sure what to do about those.


Soft top looks good. And no leaks in todays rain Clean and recolour.


The usual faded badges. Get some inserts for these.



Bumper not fitted quite right. Somehow it looks worse in this picture than it does in reality.


No issues here. Just needs a really good clean! Some leather would be nice though




Driver's side door lock makes a nasty grinding noise.

Heater control is broken internally.


Yuck. Flush the system, clean or replace the bottle, replace with some nice pink OAT.


Some other things:
  • 4 different tyres on it at the moment and all the wrong size.
  • Heater resistor pack is out. Fan only works on 3 & 4. Fixed this before on
    ZS105 with some new resistors. No stress.

Also found a small hole on the dash. I'll have a go fixing this with filler.


I was about to remove the engine access cover to check the basic service items when the rain that was promised came down....
