Hello!

Morning,

I've recently replaced a 2003 TD5 Disco with a 1972 Series 3 88 soft top, diesel!

No stranger to series Land Rovers, previously owned a 1973 petrol and a 1950 80" when I was 16 - sold it for £350!! Also have owned 2 90s.

This one seems to be reasonably up together, apart from some badly bodged electrics. The fuse box has been moved from the steering column to inside the bottom part of the dash!!! I've had to tape it up because some times it looks like it had been shorting out, it's just hanging there!

Cheers,

Bern.

Hello and welcome. The joys of bodges by POs eh?

Welcome.

Sounds like you have some fun times ahead
But you are at least not going in blind, good luck

Welcome to the forum

Thanks all.

I took it out at lunchtime - the indicators and brake lights stopped working! And the wipers only work if I help them across the screen - a low voltage is to blame I think! And the blower doesn't work!

I might take the bottom half of the dash off so I can get a better look at the wiring. But it might be too cold, so I might not!

Hello and welcome from me
Incase you are unaware- any series advice you need is best posted in the series sub forum, loads more traffic there than here.

Thanks Flossie, though I'm not after any advice yet, but I'm sure it won't be long before I will!

Hi and welcome!
