Re: 1981 Acadiane not much to report, at least picture wise, but i now have 5 super slots clad in 135 toyos, they'll be fitted sometime!   i've used 1.5 ltrs of Dynax wax on the sills and windscreen surround, spent an age polishing my alternator (in works time you understand, not mine!), 1990 spec BX TZD seats and adaptors are in place. new discs & pads are on order. both rear doors removed & filled with dynax. Load area cleaned & polished. door cards replaced & recovered. passenger door winding mechanism sorted, a full set of driveshaft gaiters to be fitted. ARB shock mount plates blasted & powdercoated. Loads of other stuff either renewed or repaired where possible. Basically i've been buying stuff up that i'll need as & when it becomes available, so early next year i'll have a fun time wangin' it all on... maybe!

Re: 1981 Acadiane yep. mytyre all the way! last time i ordered a set a couple of years back i had change from a hundred quid!
line the yellow rings up with your valves - it's supposedly the *lightest* point on the tyre, Joe. Bumper is re-instated, sorry chaps!

Re: 1981 Acadiane Neil, I've just noticed that you've re-fitted the retaining nuts on the valves upside down!
