Minimum 8k. Possibly more if the new chassis is galvanised.

That would polish up pretty good I should think, good enough anyway. Where would you stop though? Once the bodywork is done, then it's the interior, then the engine etc

I reckon that would clean up pretty well, looks pretty original. No idea about price, personally they all seem too expensive to me.

Lovely looking lightweight!😎. I’m sure the wiring can be sorted. 😁

Check out the reason I was standing in a puddle of diesel, after filling to make sure I made it home, As I stated, Infantile had been at "Work":mad:

Trust me it wears thin after a while.

Thats the king doo ribs in that foil tub, I chuck the bones back in & bin it as one of our dogs was a bin raker so no chances taken. It would be better if they had see through lids as id keep em for nuts bolts n screws.

I wouldn’t use the tin foil trays though!

33 quid plus delivery for a wee tray. I can get a meal deal for 2, delivered with 3 quid change so thats 6 chinky tubs & a round tub but thats the curry sauce one. :p

Quite a few cross over size wise, not perfect but good enough to get you out of a pickle.

Hi and welcome! Any pics of the landies? We like pics…

Some clubs will be more responsible than others then. GLASS is the best bet for green laning or pay and play sites for off roading.

Got a fair bit more progress to show you guys! Stripped the block of front cover, cam chain and sprockets, camshaft, pistons & rods, crankshaft and sump. Here's some pics... Then I cleaned the sump... Then I removed...

The power steering pump fitted, steering box seals changed cleaned and painted, with new pipes on order. Steering column fitted with some new uj’s. New fuel lines fitted along with a new galv fuel tank bracket and YRM stainless fitting kit. Rear...

I’ve got one too (a metal locking cubby box, not stained curry tubs!) to fit to my 90. You can but internal trays for cubby boxes from the likes of Mud Stuff, but at a price.

Worth keeping for a Landy as you never know where Land Rover have used odd size fixings!

Greenlane association or local off road clubs for green lanes.. If you want off road fun, go for a pay and play site here you can get stuck and winch away to your hearts’ content.

One of the joys of this kind of work is finding you need a new tool. Got some holes to countersink in a tight spot sourced an air drill from Fleabay. Izzy has now moved into the garage and is up on axle stands. Coolant has been dumped and the...

Or make something out of ply and cover in black or grey felt.

and here was me last week making the exhaust

Did a thing.. converted to m57n2 in the end with a zf 8hp70x gearbox

I've seen a few more jobs to do while I was under there. There's a crack in the exhaust pipe near the rear silencer and the brake pads are getting thin. The exhaust was a stainless one which I fitted in 2012, so that's thirteen years it's lasted...

Well it would be rude not to spend some time in the garage on my day off, its amazing the amount of things getting crossed off the needs fitting list, exhaust, rear shocks, handbrake shoes and drum, brake lines, front calipers, clutch pedal box...

Thanks. Sadly Horseshoe Lane has a Voluntary Restraint on it to drive it West to East. Think I'll have to plan to return at a quiet time and try it the other way round though. Bit of a lack of passing places if you meet anyone, so can see sense...

If I plan a route I never know if it’s good 1 way. Do look at contours when planning. Make a few notes about sections & if there is more about being better the other way you can reverse the map direction. Just need to remember road junctions &...

While laning this year we also did the famous/infamous "Bastard" lane, properly known as Horseshoe lane. It's another one of those lanes you see people driving badly on YouTube and making a complete hash of it. You can see it on the ground too...

That S1 v8 made it look easy.

And sounded nice
