Very specific!

Hi and welcome! Much safer than a motorbike for a mid-life crisis!

Hi everyone, just got my 1st (and likely last lol) 110 ht defender and joined here to pick brains as i already need help but will leave that for the proper page. Yes, 1st defender in my late 50's..gotta start sometime :) Pic of my 110, ex uk...

You’ve built a monster truck! That’s what my lad said when he stuck his head into the garage, and to be honest he isn’t far wrong. Tyres fitted to the new rims, rear extended arches fitted, new power steering pipes in, fuel pipes fitted to the...

A galvanised chassis and originality will make this desirable. £8k sounds achievable. A new set of galvanised body cappings and a polish up of the bodywork would work wonders.

I would agree with the 8k maybe a bit more depending on condition of other things. Although I am not looking for a V8 so these prices will be lower I paid £2250 18months ago for an ‘89 110 station wagon with no v5 (exported but never left) and...

Minimum 8k. Possibly more if the new chassis is galvanised.

That would polish up pretty good I should think, good enough anyway. Where would you stop though? Once the bodywork is done, then it's the interior, then the engine etc

I reckon that would clean up pretty well, looks pretty original. No idea about price, personally they all seem too expensive to me.

Lovely looking lightweight!😎. I’m sure the wiring can be sorted. 😁

Check out the reason I was standing in a puddle of diesel, after filling to make sure I made it home, As I stated, Infantile had been at "Work":mad:

Trust me it wears thin after a while.

Thats the king doo ribs in that foil tub, I chuck the bones back in & bin it as one of our dogs was a bin raker so no chances taken. It would be better if they had see through lids as id keep em for nuts bolts n screws.

I wouldn’t use the tin foil trays though!

33 quid plus delivery for a wee tray. I can get a meal deal for 2, delivered with 3 quid change so thats 6 chinky tubs & a round tub but thats the curry sauce one. :p

Quite a few cross over size wise, not perfect but good enough to get you out of a pickle.

Hi and welcome! Any pics of the landies? We like pics…

Some clubs will be more responsible than others then. GLASS is the best bet for green laning or pay and play sites for off roading.

Got a fair bit more progress to show you guys! Stripped the block of front cover, cam chain and sprockets, camshaft, pistons & rods, crankshaft and sump. Here's some pics... Then I cleaned the sump... Then I removed...

The power steering pump fitted, steering box seals changed cleaned and painted, with new pipes on order. Steering column fitted with some new uj’s. New fuel lines fitted along with a new galv fuel tank bracket and YRM stainless fitting kit. Rear...

I’ve got one too (a metal locking cubby box, not stained curry tubs!) to fit to my 90. You can but internal trays for cubby boxes from the likes of Mud Stuff, but at a price.

Worth keeping for a Landy as you never know where Land Rover have used odd size fixings!

Greenlane association or local off road clubs for green lanes.. If you want off road fun, go for a pay and play site here you can get stuck and winch away to your hearts’ content.

One of the joys of this kind of work is finding you need a new tool. Got some holes to countersink in a tight spot sourced an air drill from Fleabay. Izzy has now moved into the garage and is up on axle stands. Coolant has been dumped and the...

Or make something out of ply and cover in black or grey felt.

and here was me last week making the exhaust

Did a thing.. converted to m57n2 in the end with a zf 8hp70x gearbox

I've seen a few more jobs to do while I was under there. There's a crack in the exhaust pipe near the rear silencer and the brake pads are getting thin. The exhaust was a stainless one which I fitted in 2012, so that's thirteen years it's lasted...
