    Bulkhead Transport?

    Just found a bulkhead for my S3, looks just about perfect with all the bits I need! Trouble is its in Wales and im in Norfolk (216 miles). Any ideas of how to get it here? Have got quotes from the courier people advertising on ebay, but that's £200+ then I see shops on ebay selling 5 tyres on...

    HAHA, Reason to buy a Landy

    Just had to post this video; Axle Twister---Or Not! He's going on about how their upgrade makes this Lexus junk better up this ramp. A standard 90 would drive over that easily. I dont think its even the proper 45 degree twister ramp!

    3 Month S3 Rebuild

    Hi, Just been searching Landy stuff online. Found some people talking about rebuilding a LR S3. They all think that it will take much longer than 3 Months. I was planning to change the bulkhead on my S3, as well as painting the complete chassis, and possible fitting a new Autosparks loom. My...

    Outside Series

    Guess some will have strong feelings on this! How many of you keep your Series LR's outside, all yr round. Just thinking in all the rain and crap we've had today, mines left outside all yr round rain or shine. Cant think of many other 35-50yr old cars that still survive. Any thoughts on...

    Hard Top Seal

    Hi, Having some confusion of what seal is what! I ordered part no. 333487 from paddocks, which is meant to be "hard top to body seal. 333487" But on arrival it seems much more like the "roof to hard top sides" Part nos. 332611/332610. Heres some pictures; IMG_1445 (Medium).JPG (looks to be...

    Cold Galvanising?

    Anybody got any experience of the Spray/Paint on Zinc based cold galvanising stuff. Just thinking of the best way to protect a landy bulkhead. Havent really got anywhere that does galvanizing near me, and this spray on stuff is pretty cheap, just wondering how well it works! Was thinking...

    Extended Spring Shackles

    Any problems with fitting 1 Ton spring shackles to an 88 S3? How much lift will it give me? Any problems with Propshafts to short/ Brake lines breaking? Guess I might need longer check straps?

    What, Fibreglass?

    Just found this; Find LANDROVER SERIES 3 FIBREGLASS BULKHEAD AND WINDSCREEN on eBay within, Land Rover, Classic Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 22-Nov-07 20:35:30 GMT) I thought the bulkhead was meant to be structural, so fibreglass? Looks like a good idea (no rust etc) but im not...

    Series 3 Tyres!

    Can Somebody explain what the numbers in the size of the tyres means? All i know is that mine has 16x7.5 Avon Rangemaster on at the moment, which look pretty good. But If I want to get a new set, what is the 3 digit number all about, like "205" etc.???

    Green or White?

    Just bought a Hard Top for the winter. It needs painting, and im not sure what to do; Do you think Olive Drab green (like the rest of the body) would look ok? Ive got loads of the olive paint, but none of the white, so just thought of painting it the same as the car? Any thoughts?

    Wiring Breakthrough??

    Having been dreading taking out all my dash wiring to remove my bulkhead for easier repair (than doing it in situe) Think ive just have an excellant idea for the hundreds of wires that would otherwise have to be painstackingly labled and removed, only to have to be individually reconnected...
