Hi and welcome! Nice looking Landy! I can’t believe for a moment that it misbehaves…

Some sad news Guys, Ryder passed away in his sleep back in March. I didn’t see any posts or Facebook messages. He usually contacted me every few months and the last time I saw him he came on a jolly around Whitwell as a freelander was stuck and...

I also don't go on FB

Get one started!😁

Had a look as busy tommorow. There calendar is good. Waiting to see where the September meet is. Been to caffeine & machine a few times which is a good meeting point & the food is good https://www.teaonthetailgate.co.uk/

Picked up a new 4.6 for parts and possibly block. Front cover is identical and undamaged,oil pump is also intact and looking great. Just need to fit my oil filter angled adapter on and will be golden.

Cleaned the main caps...

Anywhere you have the ally next to steel you get the oxidation. If you reskin the doors, cover the steel frame with Harry Black Maskers, or gaffer tape first.

A-frame cross member looks a bit crusty, think you need to start saving up, maybe.

Here's a link to the new shock mounts ... https://yrmit.co.uk/product/rear-shock-absorber-top-mount-lr-defender-d1-rrc/ and another for the bolts and washers ...

Thanks, yes I would agree. There's something about that County livery that's very evocative of that age. Plus this appears to have been one of the Queen's Land Rovers - first registered to her transport manager at Windsor Castle no less! :p

A good mix. Some series 2’s and 3’s, early 90’s and 110’s, defenders, freelanders and discos. 😁

Seems like a nice selection there

Well done! That's a steal for a factory v8, a thing of nostalgic beauty for me! 😊👍

You're too late! I've done a deal myself for £7,350. And a big thanks to the guys who suggested it would polish up with some T-Cut because it does! The previous owner never, ever washed it so it got badly oxidized, but it scrubs-up nicely with...

Only managed to get one or two. I was too busy chatting!

I did look at going but so far they have been on a Friday evening. The traffic from Stroud to Westbury would make it a difficult journey.

Dropped the 90 at the local Indy for an MoT on Monday…

This afternoon’s fetteling saw the re trimmed dash back in, looks good with the sprayed green vent cover 👌

If that is your only issue with a 20 year plus truck you are very lucky. Only a thorough clean up will disclose the exact cause of the leak. Also I think the oil has a red hue which says main box oil. Anyway it will be basic fix of gasket or...

Brakes crap , MOT next week, new disks and pads.

Finally got everything together for swapping the Transfer box. Just need to wait on my knee getting better, so far, not so good. As mine was a working Landy all the wheelarches are damaged somewhere or other, now it's in a more genteel semi...

Started on the least favorite job, getting the dash back together ! Oh and ordered a set of black billet aluminum door hinges from exmoor trim, saw them in the Newak show and they looked well made and with show discount relatively cheap in...

I attended my local meet last night, only a few miles from home. Some other owners had travelled an hour or more to attend. It was a nice relaxed meet up with a variety of land rovers.

Got some mud on mine to

I am going to say a few things. Stop looking at pretty, of course most sale ads like to show you pretty. Wanna buy this:D. Has manual AC but rust free. No scratches (to be seen;)). I may have said it, dont get sucked in by pretty, I guess at...

This stuff. I got it at The Spray Store in Motherwell. They recommended 2.5ltrs for the 90 at a 2:1 mix with standard thinners for spraying. £70 inc the vat.

Done the front propshaft UJs and refitted it then sealed a leak (hopefully) on the transfer box. Discovered that my rear prop now needs the UJs doing but that's a tomorrow job and with that off it'll let me sort out that diff flange leak as well.

The shuttle vavle came off and is now in bits, being cleaned up for reassembly. The plastic switch seems to be fouling the shuttle valve itself if fully screwed down. No washer was there so head scratching time for assembly to make it work...
