I quite like it yes a little rusty, they all are surface rusted. Bumpers grille look like they’ve had no treatment - good sign it’s not tarted up and genuine original condition as opposed to hiding something for quick buck.

Went and checked my chassis. Mine is pretty much mint apart from a few very superficial spots. Maybe the later cars were not as solid?!

No the latter ones were just as good underneath..

Mine being a Swansea car originally ;)

All to do with maintenance ;)
 
Suspect distance from sea, washing salt off and being garaged probably helps! Although no idea of the history of mine at all.

You can hunt/creep on the previous owner like I did and get every last detail regarding the vehicle.

She was originally bought by a wealthy Romanian Lady who had some involvement with The Land Rover dealer in Coventry, although she was quite brief with the description, however my poor car was routinely used to launch boats, so plenty of Salt.. ;)

Second owner used her to tow a large caravan across britian and europe

Third

forth

fifth

Are still a lost cause ;)
 
Mine looked bad, grinder revealed clean paint - the rust was actually (mainly) caked on clay/mud. With time and money I’d love to clean it up now this summer before gets bad. 24yrs it’s great, my defender was rotted after 18 and that was good un from new. I’ve looked it up and it’s off the road now - guessing new owner found out what I meant by itl need more than bit of weld.
 
SBC cheap engine :D

Honest I am trying to deal with the voices, think I need to talk to somebody in a quiet room:oops:

You know it’s wrong when you are checking if people saw you :eek:
apparently the excuse ‘just checking the becm is asleep’ dont wash well with neighbours. Or rifling through bins looking for slave cylinders early hours :D

Good 1s in a garage, only pax door is hidden from normal view of peeps, so safe there.
You don’t want to check the bins here trust me :oops:
