A bit of progress:

Had the sump off and checked the bearings, all good :D so sump back on and ready to go.

Rose joints I the shock fitted

Still waiting for the steering rack to arrive and then we can get it back on its wheels.

That is not too heavy so far - did the water pump buy the farm?

Glad you are making progress.

Hope it all gets back together soon Jon without too much pain on the wallet. It could have been so much worse. Dale is close to me if I can be of any help.

Glad you were safe and sound.

All the pieces are slowly coming together.
The steering rack and front wheel are now here so it should be back on its wheels and ready to fire up and check the motor out in the next couple of weeks.

Nigel has been to the workshop today and fitted the steering rack and shocks. Just need to replace the broken bleed nipple on the caliper and the car is ready to go back on its wheels.
While he was there he finished fitting the new clips to the boot lid
