Week Off

An involuntary week away from the Land Rover, due to some sort of rather intense stomach virus or something similar, and helped by the Canada Post mail strike which is preventing those parts that are being waited for from getting here. Ah well! Cleaned up the garage, and, as am now basically back to good health, this evening prepared many of the normally unpainted/galvanized parts for cleaning by soaking them overnight in Evapo-Rust, which does a fantastic job at not just removing rust but cleaning, as well.

If you check out the Evpo-Rust link, by the way, you'll learn, as I just did, that the product is now being used by the U.S. Army to maintain the Abrams M1A1 main battle tank. So it's natural that it fits right in there with a Land Rover Series 2 restoration. : )
