Does anyone know of any Series land rover breakers? Not after anything major, just thermostat housing top but they seem to be rocking horse dump.
 
theres usually a couple on ebay aren't there? I know Craddocks used to do it as thats where my 2.5 came from but dont know if they still do second hand bits
 
Craddocks no longer break them but may have parts. Google series /defender boys they advertise regularly. I put an engine in the skip this year never took the housing off though.
 
Is yours missing or just badly corroded on hose joint?
Easiest way is probably to buy an engine cheaper than the connection.
If just pitted where hose goes I would try coating with plastic steel then dress back till you get a good finish.
 
Thanks - that type is different. The photo suggests Series 1 I think??

I bought a spare very low mileage engine which I have looked over and am building up as far as possible. It's just missing the thermostat housing. I have one on my existing engine (in the Landy) but I just hoped to build the spare up as far as possible.
 
a location of ' meeting myself coming backwards' isn't entirely helpful when you are asking for landy breaker help?? I know two who could help if you are local to Berkshire (they don't do mail order) give us a clue then people will know if they are wasting their time replying???

cheers steve
