This is a Series 3 Box but it looks similar to the bits you have.....

I'll order some of those nuts right away. I'll also be trying to keep some of the rod linkage for a hand throttle 'cause I've a winch to fit too.....

Thanks @lynall , I am keeping the series gearbox and have that ready to go. Have the Flywheel housing drilled to take socket heads..... And have the extra studs in place, just to fit new oil seal yet..... I'm looking at your throttle set up, but that will be for another day.....

I'm going to have a few questions on this so I'll keep them all together in one thread. I've 'trial fitted' the engine and it sits fine on the engine brackets/mounts/rubbers. I'm using Bearmach Defender rubbers, ANR1808 I think. So, first question is about the exhaust downpipe. As you know it...

Got an unused 'old stock' one, so that's another problem sorted.....

Just looking back through photos, this is how the NS was.....

Thanks @tottot , mine was a non driver when I bought it so I guess anything could have been fitted.....

Hi folks, I'm coming near the time where the gearbox is ready to be fitted. I have these two mounts which came off the original chassis but have read that they are handed, part #s, 272501 and 272498. but I can see no discernible difference between them. Any pointers to tell L from R or are mine...

Anybody know what this bracket is for in tub of 88"? I can see holes for Bench seats but this seems to be an extra.....

The 'bracket' is made of strong stuff and offers a lot of protection against stray branches etc pushing up from below.....

This is one fitted to a 1979 Series III, 88".

Enjoying the 'thread', really inspiring. Passenger side, spacer to the outside.....
