A Dagenham dustbin for one of Solihull's finest what more could you ask nice find

I looked at pastel green but my colour is a bit too dark, judging by the rest of the vehicle it probably isn't a land rover colour as I have found so far the guy who rebuilt her has used series 2 engine,1 defender door, defender bulkhead, defender transmission tunnel and floor,series 3 clock's...

Basicly every Autobiography will be different as the program was first stated with the P38's (although there were some 100 inch Classics produced), the idea was you went into a dealer and specified how you wanted the car built right from body colour,wheels,inside trim, type off...

Trying to ascertain what colour our new series 3 is, as I need to spray the new door tops when I get them. :confused::confused:Any ideas lads:confused::confused: :D:DYes I know it is green before anyone says but what green LOL;);) Cheers Les

Seen it done a few years back a Disco 1 body put on a 71 Rangie chassis, shame they couldn't of rebuilt the Rangie.

:):)Did well, more to the point for 296.312 GBP you did outstandingly excellent. :D:DNice looking mota, couldn't find one that good for that sort of price when I was looking so bought a series 3 instead, look forward to your rebuild (Lots of picks) and good luck. ;);):D:DYou Jamy...

:D:DNice rebuild, keep it up that wiring looks very similar to what I found on my new series 3 apart from the majority of my wires are blue:confused::confused:!!!! (Going to be fun with a multimeter finding out what is what though lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Hope this may be off use

If you look at this thread http://www.landyzone.co.uk/lz/f10/range-rover-classic-radio-wiring-96707.html and scroll down to my post there are copies of the wiring diagram and wire colour code's if that's any more help

A standard unit will fit, but when you slide it in you have to make sure that all the wires and connectors are tucked into the space towards the transfer box lever otherwise it will sit proud of the dash. I fitted a standard Sony unit to my classic with no problems, the wiring is not that hard...

Cheers guy's according to the engine number it is a civilian block so should be a standard pump, I ordered one last night.

:confused::confused:A quick question, after finding out what engine I have in my new landie so I can change the water pump (long time since I have had 2 1/4 diesel) is there a difference between a series111 3 bearing diesel and a series 11a 3 bearing diesel as checking the engine number it...

:):)Hi geodunn Did you get your power steering done in the end if so any pics available / run-through of how you did it. Cheers Les

:):)Hear are pic's as promised there is an extra pump just below the alternator which is piped in to the brake servo I gather this would be to create a vacuum for the brake servo also the heater plugs are wired into what looks like a starter motor solenoid. Both door tops are shot so they will...

:Cry::Cry:Well finally done it sold my Rangie yesterday:):) looking at a series 3 109 diesel today, will post pic's as soon as I've got her home. Two questions 1 she doesn't have a butterfly valve on the front of the inlet manifold (2.25NA Diesel)as with previous diesels I have had, does this...

:D:DJust thought some of you lads might find this useful:):) Archive Resources/Information - Land Rover Technical Blog

:):)Neither did I but I thought I would ask just in case:confused::confused:

:D:DHi its alight for you SWB boys with rover axle's LOL, but I am looking at buying a 109 which has a Salisbury rear axle. :confused::confused:Question is are there alternative ratio diffs for that axil or is it a case of changing the whole thing:confused::confused:. Cheers Les

:D:D:DWell done mate, looks good reminds me off my first safari exactly the same colour but with a diesel(till some kids wrote it off with a stolen Land Cruiser).:D:D

:welcome2:Nice looking motor not bad (Apart from the wheels of course) but your going to change them anyway, as mentioned by others you should be able to pick up some 16's or 18's quite cheaply with some decent tyre's you should be OK good luck and have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D:D:D.
