Time to continue the SJ story.
Have been using it alot so been fixing the distributor, the door, and the carb and choke.
But now time to change the rotten window frame.
Painted the new frame
Prepping for a New gasket

And there it is back together. What a great way to spend the evening!
Not sure I will sell this windscreen glass, it has the dark green tint sun strip in the glass. No way I will ever get one of those again. Scraping the trail tough streamer off soon..

As the jimny would not pass the mot on 235 tires, it borrows the 215's from the SJ a few days.
The SJ Looks good on 235. But the low gear and hp will suffer.
I thought modern alloys on the old car would hurt my eyes more.

stuck as the road was only passable with a 4x4.
Inside closed roads and in the wildest Mountains we often met people from Holland on my last trip.

Been at it on my 410 again.
Removed some riveted pieces on the tub edge to find gaping holes. So cut some sheet steel to fully weld in
Not pretty but steel beats rusty holes any day.

It was a cold dark night.. - 10.
Took the SJ out for a "warmer" and ran it up to temperature. Avoiding salted roads.
Put it back in the storage after.
Thinking I will take it out once every month or so. Stored inside in above freezing in a dry warehouse so will be Just fine.
I have full access to it so might do the odd job as well to it during winter.

Still got this, still my daily driver tru summer.
Today I got cought out in the rain and with 10 —12 degrees the old soft top was a pain to get on.
But still love the car!
It was probably the last Day this season with the top down, Will be getting a storage sorted for the winter soon.
