As for the brake lights, get acquainted with a test light. Sometimes fuses can still look good when they are blown.
Check the globe holders for corrosion.
Check that you have put dual filament stop/tail globes in.
For the service i'm getting new tyres,rims,brake pads,tagged fire extinguisher and just a general check to make sure its good for collie.

And i'll have a closer look at the globes and fuses. Thanks

As I have had flat tyres in the past ONLY to find the spare is flat too
Told my sons the same thing too ..........
Only to get a call..
DAD I HAVE A FLAT, AND THE SPARE IS FLAT
Ha ha yeah i should check it more often

That'll buff out!

Haha. At least it shows you were pushing your limits, well done. When in doubt, flat out!

I'll have to check the garage, I might have a spare light/bumper/fender for you.

AFAIK the newer lights require the newer bonnet too. From looking at your pic, I think you'll be up for a new bumper, fender, corner light and bonnet. Most likely your bumper support rail will need bending back into place too.

I did similar damage when I hit a roo a while back.
