The final bit of work was on the rear tailgates and bumper. The lower tailgate and bumper had a couple of dings and scratches in them from somebody being careless with a bike or pushchair. The bumper has had a fresh coat of silver paint, while the lower tailgate has been straightened and resprayed. Also the tailgate now features a hinged number plate holder instead of the number plate being screwed directly to the lower tailgate. Raised lettering spelling "Range Rover" has also been added to the lower tailgate, again this is correct for a Range Rover of this age. The upper tailgate has also been replaced with a good second hand one, but not before it got a fresh coat of satin black paint inside and out. The upper tailgate seals and rubbers have been replaced and the tailgate has been waxed on the inside edges where they usually corrode.
I'd like to thank Rob and his team at the Redland Grove Bodyworks for all the advice and hard work they provided in helping me with this latest part of Project Benson |
