Looks like everything is working out well. The guy want`s to pick up the Blazer on thursday... Tunnel without a mountain, now i got the idea. Did we meet there when i picked up the L300?

Btw, got an appointment for the TÜV inspection on thursday. When i pass it, i can finally register the car... Wish me luck...

So after two hours i managed it to put some new treads in the brake caliper. After that it took me like 5min to reassemble the missing left side. Then i wanted to start painting the front axle, but that would`ve been too easy, wouldn`t it? So i drove out of my frontyard to turn the car around...

Blazer was sold again for 4700$... Hopefully this guy picks it up...

The mudflaps are finished:

This is how the exhaust looked: And the exhaust manifold: Few pics from yesterday... It rained all the time and the L300 doesn`t fit in my shop, so i placed some tarps over it: Wheels primered: And painted: Doesn`t look that bad anymore, does it? Placed some more stickers...

Spent the whole day at the front brakes and i`m not even finished yet... Passenger side went flawless, everything worked like it was supposed to. Then i started with the drivers side. I wasn`t able to unbolt the brake caliper, both bolts were rusted big time. So we tried to get the hub out...

I could use some platic wheels, but i chose the steel ones because the brakes get hot and would melt the plastic ones. And i think they hold up better... The weight is fine for me, i can carry it without any problems...

He told me ************* stories that he`s ill and sick and all that ****. I asked him why he`d buy a car if he isn`t able to drive it, but he wasn`t able to answer that question... Where`s the tunnel without a mountain? Never heard that saying before...

Don`t think so...

It`s still sitting in front of my house. Stupid buyer won`t pick it up... :ar15: Another guy will maybe pick it up this week...

Another bummer today... :-( I noticed a crack in the exhaust manifold and wanted to weld it. For better access i removed the heat cover and noticed another crack all the way around the manifold. It`s basically broken in half. So i removed the manifold and exhaust completely and noticed another...

I don`t think i could save more than about 500g, it`s not much steel used...

My sister started sewing some curtains... ...while i checked the wiring on my Subaru radio that i`m going to use:

Wouldn`t be one of my rigs without some stickers: Here are two pictures of the bedliner fail:

Hopefully it`s not done soon, because i usually sell my car`s when they`re done... :oops: Big setback today: For some reason the bedliner didn`t stick really good to the car and peeled off at some spots. Looks like i have to redo the paint... :Wow1: :mad:

Made some great progress today... One of the last few spots: My dad fitting some metal in: Me cutting the rust out: Finished: My sister sanding it: Me wirebrushing the underside: Result: Then my sister and my neightboor helped me painting it: Result: Me thinking...

Right side welding is finished: Looks like an incredible bad job with the flash, but it looks fine in person... :ylsmoke: From what i`ve seen there are only one or two small spots on the left side. Then just the three spots on the rear fenders and i`m done... :wings:

My improvised car stand: Makes working on the underside a lot easier... :ylsmoke:

Why? It was covered while welding... Because it`s not the right one. It`s a 4WD Camper Van and not an Expedition Vehicle... Old and new one:
