    Series 1 decided to keep the series 1 , first start attempt today

    the chassis needs a rear crossmember , a few outriggers and thats about it , i was suprised at the chassis seeing as the grass it was sat in was nearly door height and coming through the floor as for the magazine a member of land rover owners dug around a bit and told me it was restored quite a...

    a different ramp/lift question to the other thread :D

    rsj frame dug under the floor? im thinking if i make a square frame and put barbs/spikes on it then dug it deep and bolted the lift to that? lifts are cheap is the concreting thats expencive , can then use thin layer of tarmac or concrete just to make it flat?

    Anyone have a car ramp/lift?

    used to use one of those in a garage i worked in , personally i found it a bit low for me (6.2) so lifting wheels off and stuff was at an awkward angle , ideal for doing an engine build on or big ends ect though ! lifts at a nice height to do on your back , also good for timing belts and stuff :)
