Are the struts otherwise ok? If so you could just swap yours left to right so the broken one uses the other bracket on the other side. They do look pretty rusty though and might be better replaced

Annoying about the paint reaction but most of this looks like good rewarding enjoyable work -
I did have a word with the owner and later thought I should have asked him if he might want to sell it to me now or in the future, now I feel better for not having done so

Spot on it was indeed a 2.0 is, probably my ideal Sierra, at least that or the Indenor diesel

Could the oil pump be suspect? -
Is there any way I can get the DVLA to send my wife a replacement logbook for her Saab with make and model changed to Vauxhall Labrador?

Looks like one of the better Sierra's left, not as nice as you hoped but I think you've done pretty canny -
When I used to do agency work for NDS on Tyne Dock we used to refer to the Cabstars as the 'boneshakers'. There was one particularly terrible vessel (possibly the MV Autoroute) that had a long steep ramp which narrowed towards the top. The only way to get the chassis cab Cabstars up it was to drive to the end of the pontoon then reverse up at the ramp foot to the floor in reverse with the wheels spinning and the axle tramp shuffling the awful contraption all over the shop. Somehow both fun and harrowing at the same time...

If you have trouble getting hold of the brake pipe I can probably make you one up and send it to you -
Great set up, I used to run a disposable ex-minicab Xantia on WVO when I was a student, this brings back memories of everything being covered in sticky greasy dirty mess 😜

I'll get round to it at some point - Finishing starting

Nice save! Are they definitely imperial threads? American automotive fixings started to switch to metric in the 1980s.
