this sure as hell gonna be a bastard to do. You're looking at long hours, months and months in the body shop, cutting, welding, grinding, filling, priming, flatting, spraying and polishing. Then the structure will always be weak, and you might need to get SVA for the conversion from a 3 door to a 5 door.........

A guy in the Freelander Owners Club did the conversion on his........i think it was quite straight forward.........he never said it was hard to do.........They have a chat page on Yahoo..........I'll see if I can find the link>>>>>>>

Right s'all changed since I was a member, they've got a site now not a yahoo group by the looks of it so you'll have to join up and ask your question........they are a friendly bunch. I think the guy who owns the converted FL is called Coiln but I'm not 100% sure...........hope this has helped??? :)
 
Nice one, change the picture on your orignal post so I look a tit !
(although the picture you had originally did have the updated front, and I knew exactly what you meant, but was trying to be funny, looks like the laughs on me. Again.
