Had chance to rip out the headlining today and give it a pampering I’ve decided to spray it black so giving it a few coats over the next couple of days so it’s a lovely clean finish. Post more pics once it’s done!

It’s been a few weeks because I’ve been waiting on parts to arrive from craddocks. Today I’ve had chance to fit some 30mm spacers and get around to installing the exmoor trim carpets. The carpets are good quality, but there’s has been a few issues. I think exmoor have tried saving some cash in...

Know I’ve been slacking in the upload department just been under a lot of pressure and there has a lot of waiting around for deliveries, still waiting on a lot. I’ve managed to swap my doors so I now have series style doors and have attached the wolf tops with some grit and determination. The...

Thanks for kind comments boys, just a quick update I’ve had chance to update the speakers today, pretty simple and quick job but well worth it, still think the truck would benefit from some kind of sub but we will see when the new carpets are fitted.

I essentially did most of the work on evenings last week but for the paint I sprayed in the shade then moved the motor into the sun for it to bake, it meant that it dried out thoroughly, when applying the lacquer I did that when it was still a little tacky to ensure good adherence in shade...

I’ve just had chance to get some photos of the finished paint it still needs mopping but not a bad job for a DIY spray job out of cans, I’ve painted the whole tub inside and out I’ll try get some more pictures of the whole truck when the new doors have been painted and fitted. I used 120 grit...

I used a product called bitflex, after doing some research it’s what the fiat group use and was just less than half the price of the dynamat which I can the put towards the carpet it was the cheapest like for like product that I could find

Small update I’ve had chance to strip the old rubber matting and have now laid sound deadening insulation, it’s a little costly but even without new carpeting it feels and sounds a lot quieter in the cab. Five weeks turn around for exmoor trim with carpets, has anyone got any other...

Not quite like that just really not a fan of the cheap plastics, I’ve purchased series headlight surrounds and a new metal grill they are going to be painted a satin black matching the roof and Bonnet scoops that I’m buying for it. I’ve decided to get something laser cut to fit the hole as I...

Looking for a heads up on where to find something to cover up where my horn is and the hole on other side of possible as I’m changing to a series inspired front end

Upgraded to a defender 90 from my landrover 90 and have been doing some bits n bobs to make it look gleeming again and put my mark on it. I’ve attatched some pictures and will update when I can on it’s progress. Work planned is: Exterior - Upgrade grill and light surrounds -Repaint rear...

this still available? if so has it got any service history for engine? after a decent v8 for my ninety project

I'm upgrading to a puma dash, do you need the dials as well or just dash? its coming out of a 1989 ninety in relatively good condition.

I'm also worried about people coming along and picking it up and putting it on tow trailer but I guess there's no protecting from that haha. I currently have a hidden fuel cut off switch but want to install an alarm, I'm unsure on how to wire this to the old loom, might have to look at having it...

This Paul Taylor as in Kaobon Paul Taylor?

I have a 1989 90 I'm wondering what security similar vehicles run, putting a new chassis and v8 engine in so its going to be more desirable to thieves. Thank you in advance.

Thank you, I've found a reconditioned one out of a stag on eBay, I'm a little skeptical about buying an engine and not seeing it run first however that's a risk I think I'm going to take, by the pictures it looks like a decent engine going to have a friend who's a specialist look at it before I...

Got a midget in the back scooping them into the furnace lol it was a typo I meant LPG my apologies haha

I've decided to keep it simple and drop a 3.5 rover v8 in, then I'll get it bored if I decide I want more power, truthfully I want the v roar and want it to have decent power driving about, I'm not to fussed about fuel economy as its log converted, this way I get to keep my overdrive and lt77...

some great comments, would you guys suggest a small block chevvy engine over a supercharged jaguar engine? guess its less to go wrong?
