Imagine what you would come back with if you went to the butcher?! Half a cow and a sore hole 😂

Happy sunny day…. Well after a week off my brain celll has shut down. Was away with friends seeing the Welsh countryside and sun. Now to sort my stuff out ready for work. At least the mrs will be happier with the quiet returning back to the...

Some days just work out like that......I spent 3 hours trying to take a wing off a classic car to get to an aerial.... seemed simple few bolts, inner wing needs to come off.....bit more the bleeding front fascia needs to come off...... bit more...

Well today I started off tidying up the rear door on my 110 with some checker plate... naughty I know but it looks better than holes! Went out with the dog and I could smell petrol after a while... pulled over and looked, petrol spraying...

It's £1.39 around these parts.

It could be factory built and quite rare. There was some weird **** around in the those days.

Oooo a 2B double cab… that petrol station has cheap fuel though

Spent a hateful day welding the chassis on the Ninety, another hateful day to look forward to tomorrow. Why is it when welding on a bit of scrap metal you get a lovely weld, get underneath with your head wedged between propshaft and exhaust and...

Done a couple of punch hunts in my old RRC.. it was fun! Mostly RTV trials on my 2A.. also huge fun, could never keep up with folks on the massive tyres though and the 90s turning circle

Been to plenty of pay & play days where I have not even bothered driving. By us they just put the motors in the deepest things they could find & winch all day. I’m sure none of these drivers could do a challenge event(punch hunt). & last a day.

Very sensible and considerate driving at all times. Note a couple of lanes situated on the 'gallops' it is actually sign posted "NOT" to follow the track but to spread out to avoid making ruts so not to risk injury to horses. Just thought I would...

Better to close part of the year of it keeps it open overall 👍

I’m guessing someone had too much time, a vivid imagination and some odd bits kicking around…

As a sort of update I emailed the Glass Chairman who via the local rep, has passed the video and as much info as possible to the relevant authorities. What comes of it, if anything, I do not know.

Check to see if the manifold gaskets are the same… If they are different look at the pictures to see the difference & indicates the model with the larger ports.

Ok, the transfer box seals hadn't been done so I would take that with a pinch of salt. Have a look at the cambelt housing front cover and see if that's been off recently. Cambelt only really becomes a problem if it snaps, most likely you will be...

Personally I would get it reliable and mechanical issues sorted first and then move onto the body panels. When was the cambelt last changed?

Could not agree more. I have had the conversation with friends that I don't know what came first the land rover or the things I do in my free time, but they compliment each other, and if I had a normal plastic car with carpets, within 6 months...

Few things I spotted… Move the spill rail return away from the throttle cable Where is the pipe from top of fuel pump(where the star boost pin adjuster is) ?

Always an awkward repair but more so when you’ve got to ensure it doesn’t knock out your lining up across the rest of the repairs. Test fitting is a must. Takes longer but I don’t want to find I’m out on my boot floor which would then knock on to...

One of the rear crossmembers had seen the metal moth generate fresh air where steel should be. Tonight's task was to fill it in with a small patch: And weld it back in. Only got access to arc at the moment and that can be a bit fierce on...

Removed the bed system Fixed(pop rivit) a bar back onto the tail gate Installed the new spare wheel brackets to get the tyre off the floor. Off to shops for nuts/bolts/washers. Replace stocks And when the mrs won’t hold your nuts ;) use a...

Ready for summer when it starts raining again 🤣

Great pics and stunning scenery. 😁

Whilst washing the 90, the blades needed replacing. A pair of Bosch replacements were purchased from eBay for a good price.

We go to Wiltshire or West Berkshire on occasion if you fancy coming along. Usually post up in the Green lane section before we go.

Do these big trips same time every year as the friend comes over from Germany just for lanes & overlanding. As for local stuff…. I think August may be the next trip.

Can you let me know if you plan anything else in near future? I’m keen to do a bit in pig. Apart from private land that day I had a go in yours is last time I went. Years ago now. Time flies

Nope…. Nothing will fit. Dash to wide Doors wrong shape Seatbase… does the motor still have the tank under the seat? Now do you want photos of a series 1 interior?

Looks like a good time was had
