What paint have you used to do the diff?

Plain old 'Hammerite Smooth' gave everything a brush over first & quite pleased with how it looks

looks great, like new

It's the first 'real' chance I've had to take a 'good look under the 'old gal', not bad for a 10 year old.
The underside is remarkably tidy & quite rust free.






I have a replacement box ready for when the rust makes it all the way through ............... :whistle:

I draw up designs and made templates for a overhead console to hold my cb and car theromonitor as well as a few other goodies

I miss having an external thermometer.........do you recommend one?

Have you got any pics of roof consoles? How do you hang them?

That's one thing I need to figure out... I was thing of Angle (L shaped steel to you non fabricators!) stuck to roof with sealant and the roof console bolted to that as long as you don't got OTT it should hold...

As for the thermometer I am going for the one as pictured above (Tadpoles post) it seams accurate enough and will replace my Fast & Furious style volt meter as it comes with a built in one with audible alarm

And hang on two mins I will through a few up I have been looking at

-EDIT-

Here you go

Ah, I thought it only read interior temp!! :blush:

I have to admit I don't worry about how warm I am or the car's interior but how cold it is outside always gets my attention. :laugh: :laugh:

the pics above are what I have based my design on

Took delivery of these bad boys

That's one reason I bought mine, those -0 mornings can catch you out along with the battery state/amps hth ...............

Welded on my ORA diff front and back guards ready for the weekend :woohoo:
