Not much for me today but I did see this looking around online:
https://www.jadlamracingmodels.com/traxxas...wler-sand/ They’ve been discussed here before I know, and not cheap, but very realistic. There are some other colours there too! Does anyone have one?  _\Hennessey|Venom| F5/___

A cleaning session on the 110
Hoovered Dash wiped over and seats wiped Used Halfords Advanced reactive wheel cleaner than really did bring out the crap from the wheels and remove the dirt Rinsed off. Car washed and then left with water stains. Polished out/removed with spray on wax Windows cleaned. Ran out time to get some back to black for the wheel arches Not bad for an old girl  1999 Defender TD5 110

Greased Prop UJ’s and other things plus the DM’s, to help prevent the old inevitable “fretting”.
Replaced the smaller breather tube on the fuel tank, the other day as well. Found some nice new uses for some new grease gun needles, just to get in some awkward places, they work quite well. DM splines though not perfect is one use, plus bonnet catch pin and things like that. _\Hennessey|Venom| F5/___ ___\⭐️Lone|Star|State/___ ____\We|Will|Win/___ ____/🇬🇧🇺🇸\____ _//*⛽️🛢️⚙️🧰*\\_ |

Did the weekly shop at the supermarket in this:
Click image to enlarge As I was loading it in the car park, I heard a voice say "I like your Defender". Turned around and, to my surprise there was a little old lady, very small and very old. She just looked up at me - and then walked off. I know Defender fans come in all shapes and sizes, but this really did surprise me. (Especially as she drove a tiny little Euorobx). |
