    Rattleguns Series Rebuild

    Looks like the kids will be very happy back there. The best part is how ever loud they scream, you wont get pi***d off with em, the one bonus with a noisey land rover!

    Series IIA - The Remake

    The camera is certainly lieing! I havnt realy got the hammer to it yet, but tapping along it isnt very good, the dumb irons are buggered, all the outriggers are pretty much gone, along with the crossmembers, and pretty much the whole front section is only just supporting itself, there is a hell...

    Series IIA - The Remake

    Well, here we are, at another series rebuild thread. A little back story for the old girl i suppose is needed here. Well, GUR as she is known (the reg starts with GUR!), is a 1969 Series IIA 88' Petrol in Blue. The first bit of history i know of her is from up in winkleigh, where she was a...
