The panel beater didn't turn up for work today, so I thought about all the other things that need doing. I know it will be a long road.

This afternoon I didn't get much done, my nephew lends me his brother in-law's Ex Army Land Rover 110 every year about this time, for a week or two. I give the grandkids rides and do laps of the main drag, they get a kick out of waving to their friends. I had to give it back this afternoon, so it was 1 last drive up the main street then back to nephews house, then a 2 kilometre walk home. He did offer a ride back but I am a stubborn old sod, and pride wouldn't let me accept.

I pulled the distributor out of the CCW 270 and it is the same length as the Holden distributor. Tomorrow I will measure down the M216 distributor hole with Vernier calipers and see what I have got, and what I need. Probably an idea to measure the 270 distributor hole and compare measurements. Anyway it is all part of the fun. The easiest would be if I had the 302 distributor and could compare the lengths side by side.

Now for a bit of comedy, some photos of fitting the temporary International bonnet.

A bit untidy but another part of the end goal.
