Thanks...I'm trying to choose one at the moment. I had the welding done, it looks OK I think but it was expensive so I don't want to keep paying out in the future. Working in the rain on a Sunday night with work the next morning.....no, doesn't sound like a lot of fun :(

Thanks. Mine has been a London tractor, I got it from someone I know who has bought a modern, new version to replace it. It never had a tow bar on it before, I was fitting the towbar & knew about the tape covering the rot up but only realised the extent of it when I took the bumper off. It will...

Thanks for all the advice. I plan on keeping this 'ol 'gal & want to get the rot sorted. I have had good look around now & one of the rear body mounts has already been welded & the other needs it. There are no holes in either sill but have found a hole about the size of a 5p in the chassis...

Thank you for the replies. I guess I'm a little apprehensive because when I found the rot in the pictures I was quite shocked. I new there was an issue there because it was just taped over with black fabric tape but It looked worse than I thought. I agree entirely with the electronics issue on...

....not the response I was hoping for, has nobody any comments?...I don't mind laughter....

Thanks.

Thanks. God help me.....

Hi all, Iv'e just joined the forum & need some advice. Hopefully attached are some pictures of the rear of my Disco in need of some tlc. I have never attempted welding before nor do I have any equipment. So I need to get someone to do this for me. Several pertinent questions: Assuming it's...
