Thanks very much for your kind comments
So I made a start today, front brakes as they were pulling to the right and making some very strange noises, to cut a long story short, all four wcyls deteriorated, 2 seized, brake linings detaching from the metal backings, adjusters seized. So a complete overhaul required.
Question 1
When adjusting, the manual states about 0.006 thou clearance between shoe and drum ( toe and heel) is that right ? and if so how do you measure it ? OR just do it by feel
Question 2
The original heating system is completely missing, from what I've researched the heater was in two parts, a heater pipe running along the underside of the dash to provide a rudimentary demisting system and a under dash unit with a blower to warm the cab, is this right ?
A system of manual valves would allow switching hot water on or off and diverting it to either unit
I won't go into the wiring which has bee crudely converted to 12v with no inverter to step it down to 6v for the gauges and seems to have been pinched out of a modern vehicle and butchered to suit, definitely a fire hazard, so that will also be getting a thorough sorting
Any help will be greatly appreciated
