Visiting Safety Devices, collecting parts in the dark, road trip, body panels & mistakes. Episode 10

Starting the week in Suffolk at @SafetyDevicesLtd with Andrew from @AndrewGraham-AlliSport-Ltd as we look at the facilities where Purdey's roll cage will be constructed, with furtive guest appearance from my dad!
Then we head south to collect more original bits of Purdey on a dark wet afternoon before heading for the ferry, where we give you a top tip for combating sea sickness.
Back in the workshop the body panels are again the focus, our inexperience shows as we discover we are missing a crucial seal and the cats mount a take over bid for channel content!
As always, huge thanks to our build partners @hotbray906 (eurospare) @gititire4553 @exollubricants5273 @demandengineeringltd for their ongoing support and @paddockspares for keeping the parts coming!
Our Land Rover 110 is starting take shape!!

The body panels take up a lot of time, but we also receive our seats from OMP, and luckily my bum still fits !! We take a look back at choosing the seats at @demontweeksshop9542 , refit the seat box after paint, and drive north to the port at Dieppe. As there is only so much grinding, cleaning and sanding you can watch without getting bored, this is a shorter episode. But it’s all important wo...

The week doesn't start well as we have no power, but soon we are able to move on with wiring on our Land Rover build. The countdown towards Dakar Classic continues, and also the @SantanaTrophy, and we show you some footage of Priscilla, our Defender 110 and Lulu, our Discovery 2 on the 2023 event in Morocco, offroad, including the Sahara desert. The seat box is modified, we work on the windscre...

Good progress this week with our Land Rover 110 for Dakar Classic 2026. She is starting to look like a car! But, we battle the weather, we have another visit from our random goat and I talk about lubrication. The yoga mat comes into play again, and we watch some UA-cam "how to" videos. Big thanks this week to Sue and Abi who helped with filming, to @ExolLubricants and @lofclutches4156 as well a...

Land Rover 110 build. The long awaited delivery finally arrives, allowing us to get on. The chassis wiring goes in place, the gearbox comes off, we have a panic about the steering box and lay under Priscilla. Brake pipes get made and the transfer box is ready! The countdown to the @SantanaTrophy and Dakar Classic continues ..... Thanks once again to @hotbray906 (eurospare) for their valued help...

Although the engine is in, we decide we will have to take the gearbox out again, find out why. Some parts arrive, but not all the parts, the big delivery is held up in Paris at customs. We are frustrated, so go to see the @VendeeGlobeTV boats. Find out about our humanitarian cause .... Plus, we lay under Priscilla, a visitor comes into the workshop and says "Crikey", and a random goat runs past...

A slower this week as we wait for parts deliveries to catch up with us, but we get the engine into the build area with a lot of physical effort, cut the hatch in the floor of the tub, do some work on the seat box, and get an exciting delivery from our partners at @GitiTires in conjunction with @SparcoOfficial. My 2021 gazelle Sue comes to visit and I tell you why we chose a Marsland chassis. As...

We make a start at the back of the chassis, collect more second hand parts, do some repairs and find some parts we have that aren’t quite right, which make the stress rise! Thanks to Eurospare for their help with parts in this episode.
