          We've just recieved a letter from the Enviromental health, which is due to a neighbour!

          It seems he's been spreading a rumour that I'm spraying cars in my garage and running a business from there!!

          Has anyone here had this kind of problem?

                It starting to look a bit better underneath now, after a coat of zinc phosphate primer.

                I also gave the axle a bit of re-paint and changed the rose joints, before fitting it back on.

                              Re-painting the underneath due to a problem with the paint!

                              Also replaced the lower shock bearings and various nuts n bolts.
