That is great new to see it is going to be back on the road - keep us posted and good luck, you have exciting times ahead
Thank you for the picture Catman. Undercarriage checked, clutch priced up ready to order, battery on charge so we have made a start. A wash is planned for Saturday so I will get a photo over the weekend after he has cleaned her up a little as she is a bit mud splattered at the moment.

Many thanks, more reading and learning required I think! That changes our thinking, thank you.
We have a DL in Swindon, I will ring them tomorrow, thank you
change the clutch yourself and pay voicey to come calibrate it.
All good progress, yes when I said I'd be changing the clutch myself it would have been a forum project involving a weekend on my post lift with many forum members assisting!
When you got to look under it today did you check VERY carefully the coolers that sit behind the seat locations towards the diff, if these have been damaged by the multiple journeys on the fork lifts in the salvage yard you absolutely mustn't connect the battery back up until they are drained and repaired as you risk pulling dislodged cr@p into the F1 pump and valves etc. The pump will prime the moment you connect a charged battery to it.
The drivers side wing is in need of paint under the wraps but I think you already have paint plans for the other repairs the toe rags did ripping the filler cap off etc.

I think we will do a little more investigation before we do anything with the clutch
There are 2 radiator fins very slightly bent but no 'proper' damage so we are breathing sighs of relief.
I have sourced a new filler cap so that will be painted next week once the paint is matched and arrives.
He hasnt decided whether to remove the wraps or not, he likes them so they may stay on for a little while while he decides.

Had to Google what Catman to find it means workplace health and safety
