Another couple of quick tasks completed today…. Fitting the fuel filler shroud and filler cap lock. Not the most exciting of topics but another couple of boxes ticket.

Original fuel pipe shroud. All too often these are missing from older Land Rovers. It’s a thing of beautiful really… Pressed, swaged and spot welded aluminium. Today you’d have to live with a vacuum formed plastic cover.

Back residing in the same place Land Rover put it 50 years ago.

I’m not entirely sure I have fitted the lock hasp the right way round… Maybe it’s supposed to lock the opposite side of the  filler cap?
