Default started work on checking it over

On the weekend I started going over the truck and looking at what was damaged from people and the road trip south. Also check items in preparation for starting, not sure when this will be, maybe Santa will bring me another 6V battery..

Anyway, I have checked/repaired the following
plugs out and cleaned (and put back in)
cleaned the points
checked all oils and topped up as required
replaced the gear box oil due to moisture contamination
tightened all tray bolts (missed doing up 2 during the restoration)
tightened the spare wheel carrier mounts
replaced the bolts for the spare wheel tyre retaining arm
cleaned out the fuel filter
removed RH fuel tank for cleaning
greased the truck
removed the carby for a look and clean out

That is all for now, will try to complete some little jobs during the week.
Must buy a cleaning solution for the fuel tanks this week.
