Gave it a wash & bloody good polish. Still need to wax it to seal & finish it off, but it's already looking a heap better. :D

Also bought a new pair of tail light lenses, so I'll bung them on soon.

Modified the rotisserie to now take the Moke bodies. Working to do two Mokes at the same time. 'Skippy' - the Moke from the skip bin will be sold if anybody is interested while Docs one will be a 'special' build to keep.

Finally finished wiring the parking lights into the headlights and converted the beehives to orange LED -look white until they flash. More fiddle than I expected.
