    LR90 1986 county rebuild - From Rusty to Rumble

    Thanks. They were the right way up before I uploaded them. I can't work out why they are so small. Taking my door frames to get themrepaired and galvanised today. I was going to do them myself but this guy in York will do them at a decent price.

    I know right! Somebody with no clue probably thought It was a clever repair at the time but I can tell you now Its a freaking nightmare to get off. The previous owner must have been into boats more than cars. I've got the bits to sand it off, Im just wondering about the glass fibre.. from what...

    Fibreglass! It's covering a very rotten bulkhead. The vents are still under there. I'll post pictures as soon as I cut off the fibreglass :)

    Bosch Injector

    I didn't realise it was that much! Crikey, I thought that it was only 2-5%. I think that you are right though I need to get my lady through its MOT before I mess with installing the Bosch pump. I'm still going to work this out in the meanwhile

    Yes. And If I wanted to go really fast then I would have bought a sports car not a land rover.

    Bosch Injector

    I've had a look around :) There has been success in running direct injection landys on veg oil (200tdi) the 2.5 NA work well initially but mess up because the fuel pump goes.

    My passenger side door Is completely bent so I managed to get hold of a cheap one. I tore it down to see what I bought So both doors need a lot of work and I had planned on welding in plates myself. I want to get them rust free, galvanise them, prime them, paint them, wax oil them...

    I though that I would try and sort out the doors first because I haven't got the space for to strip it down the chassis. Found that the glass I was missing in the passenger side door had just slipped down into the frame :) Hex bolts were so rusted they were a nightmare to get off. I tried...

    LR90 1986 county rebuild - From Rusty to Rumble

    I'm trying to find a barn or shed somewhere in cheshire so I can strip her down completely to really assess what I need to do! In the meanwhile Im assessing what I can do for now. The first thing I did was to clean out the back. It was full of junk and some random interior trim. Don't think that...
