    Galv dipping my chassis (Manchester)

    Hi I want to touch up and the galvanise dip my entire series 3 109" chassis and was wondering if anyone knew of any good places that may touch up the welding and would galv dip my chassis, around the Manchester area ? Also as a rough idea how much this would cost ?

    Keep original Series 3 engine but giving it a decent upgrade

    Hi all, I have a 109" 1982 (see below) and I am upgrading it with bench seats in the back and making it just a generally really useful car for myself. Now I want to keep the original engine as I think it will maintain the value better, but I want a lot more out of it (higher mpg and higher...

    Land Rover Series III Upgrade ideas and suggestions....

    I think I might go for the 2.5 non turbo from what everyone is suggesting in order to keep some originality but get a lot more functionality from the car.

    Land Rover Series III Upgrade ideas and suggestions....

    Firstly thank you both FlyingPete and PAH. A few questions on both: 1) the 2.5 non-turbo do you think it will still be powerful enough though if I am pulling my trailer, or have the back fully loaded, or taking it off-roading ? 2) I don't think the engine is too tired because it has only done...

    Land Rover Series III Upgrade ideas and suggestions....

    Hi all, On Monday I bought myself a beautiful new ex-mob 1982 Land Rover Series III LWB for about £2k to be upgraded as a bit of work horse/ camping car/ off-roader (I know LWB aren't great off-roaders). Fortunately enough it was in pretty decent condition with even an MOT but I do have a bit...

    Just 20 years old with 3 LR's, what am I doing ?!?

    Hi So me and my brother-in-law went off-roading last year for the first time on a pay and play day in Bala (Wales) and we immediately became hooked !! First Land Rover bought was a 2015 Defender for the farm, but after putting a few dints in it on the first go we decided best to get our own...
