Grill fitted, found all the glass and most of the window parts now fitted, almost weather proof.
New battery and some "start you b*stard and it fired up.
With all the glass in.. gets very HOT just running the engine for 5 mins, so when on load will be like an oven...
Purchased a new Windscreen seal "OUCH" ....yet to be fitted
