hi from the east coast

hello all new to site. I got my first defender last year and i love it the proplem ive got is it needs a new chassic,no props there as just got one from foleys. Im not scared of the job ahead as ive got a mk2 escort as a toy. Just like to know how long will it take with fitting all new parts to the chassic

anywhere between 5 days and 5 years mate, just depends ow much free time yer got

and how much money yu got to replace all the other things you find wrong and how many mates you got....

wassup bru??

just lammiting? laaitie. - yu?

kickin back on the stoep wiff a frosty bru.

sounds lej, laaitie - feelin a bit kussed here.

why?
wots yo drag bro?

new parts on order r new springs,shocks break pipes feul tank etc,new chissic bolts and wier loom

Done my series 3 mine in 9 days. 4 days during Easter and 5 evenings needed loads of new zink plated nuts and bolts cause most had to be ground off. When I got the cab,wings and back box off I built a scaffold on the front drive to lift the bulkhead .Then the engine and gearbox complete. Also got a few snooty comments from the neighbours who suggested I "lowered the tone of the street" (I believe one them changes his car every 2 yrs to avoid paying the balance on the finance) word of advice if you have stripped dont put back worn parts
