No idea
I think the following:
1. Loom
2. Make 12v wiper setup
3. Sort cab door latches
4. Sort heater pipe at the front and weld pod brace
5. Cut sem hole
6. Sort pedal cover
7. Sort cab floor bolt in plate and make new plate to hold steering column outer
8. Sort door tops and quarterlight catches
9. Sort and mod exhaust
10. Service engine and find/make tinware
11. Sort rear shock mounts
12. Make Aux loom
13. Tracking
14. Interior build
15. Change gear oil
16. Sort loading door latches
17. Clean grey primer overspray off windows!
18. Make sure all grommets are in place on brake lines
19. Redo front backing plate and wheel bearings
20. Steering box oil
21. Find spare wheel/tyre
22. Make mirror arms
23. Grease everything
24. Find replacement front drum and swap out.
...fron the top of my head. I was shot away last night after loads of hours on it all week and weekend, it was as if my limbs were half cut, my coordination had vanished!

Last night was consumed by finding reverse again, it was hiding under the rear seat... The linkage was a number of degrees out due to old accident damage, lots of cuts and welds on the front shift rod etc etc, so a measure of 'correction' was used.
(Yes Scotty, I mean lump hammers again.)
Also made a start on drilling out the wrecked bolts on the piano hinge quarterlights to replace the glass on the passengers side, a delicate job! Got more bits arriving daily for the beast, the work mailroom thinks I'm running a business from my desk at the mo!

But how can a shed dweller like Dai survive with out hammers. It might kill him!
Maybe ration hammer use and replace them with smaller hammers like weening someone of drugs.
