In this post and video I am preparing small items on my way to reassembling the Range Rover Classic. I’m all over the place on this one. Sort like an ADHD Squirrel on crack.
I prep the screws and bolts for the cowling install. They are not stainless steel and I could not get this hardware in stainless at my local Ace Hardware. So I painted the stuff I have. Primer and paint. Maybe it will slow the rust.
I also replace the foam on the, the, hell I have no idea what those pieces are called. I use some Liquid Nails and a collection of clamps to get the foam to stay in place until the glue dries.

I also talk about some more parts that could be 3D printed. The windscreen wiper beauty covers are really rough. Making these in UV resistant “plastic” would help in the restoration of these beloved machines.

I also respray the center console and give it another couple of coats of clear to protect it.
And finally, it is the United State Marine Corps Birthday again. 251 years of being America’s go to when things need to be dealt with in a violent and effective manner.
Happy Birthday United States Marines!!!!
