    Searching for old 90 reg no. G784 AUD

    I've seen that, but as I said, its recently been up for sale but he couldn't find the advert. Just posting on the off chance some one knows it and if they'd be interested in selling.

    Searching for old 90 reg no. G784 AUD

    Bit of a long shot, but does anyone own or know the owner of a grey Land Rover 90, reg no G784 AUD? A mate saw it for sale a while back and wanted to buy it but couldn't find the advert again. He used to own it and fancies buying it back. Thanks Mat

    Trashed my 90!

    I am going over to it on Friday with a good friend of mine, who also happens to be the son of the bloke who owned the defender before me! It'll be getting a good look over, things measured and hit with hammers and then perhaps put into storage until the new year. In the mean time i'll be finding...

    Trashed my 90!

    I'm still pondering it at the moment but i'm leaning more towards getting rid of it at the moment. The problem is i can't work on it where it is in storage at the moment and i really have no got time for it

    Trashed my 90!

    I'll go check it over in a couple of days, trouble is theres a crease in the chassis a inch or two forward of the suspension, which worries me.

    Trashed my 90!

    I'm still contemplating what to do with it, trouble is whilst it was a nice 90, it needs new doors as the aluminium has rotten through at the bottom, as well as lots of other bits that need doing and the money just keeps adding up. In the short time i'm going to have to buy another car as i'm...

    Trashed my 90!

    Trouble is Turboman, i've got the money to do it, but its the money i put aside for buying a house! Where the defender is currently stored, it can't stay indefinitely and i've only got a few months before work gets very busy

    Trashed my 90!

    Arm snapped just before where it goes into the bush on the chassis. Didn't take any photos yesterday, too depressing! I just made it driveable and tucked it up in a mates garage for now!

    Trashed my 90!

    Well today whilst driving home i had an accident in the 90, changed down gears well before a corner and something went back, doing no more than 30 and couldnt keep control of it, straight into a dyke with the front left corner hitting a tree! Turns out the rear trailing arm had snapped, letting...

    Red Oxide Primer. The Big Questions.

    If they're coming down, why bother with the expensive stuff? We tend to use a fair bit of red oxide at work, it gets slapped on anything we've made in the hope we can chance to paint it properly! ( Our rather expensive bulb planter has a bodged on red oxide painted safety guard that i made...

    What have you done to your Landie today.

    Defender, 1992. Plan to find a second hand set, give them the once over and sort any problems then take a few days off work and take current ones out and fit new ones. Splines on that main shaft are all worn and there appears to be quite abit of play between that cog that you can remove after...
